Abstract

This invention relates to the field of CRP obfuscation technology and discloses a CRP obfuscation method for resisting machine learning attacks with strong PUF. The system includes a ROPUF circuit, an ArbiterPUF circuit connected to the ROPUF circuit, and an excitation obfuscation module. The excitation obfuscation module is connected to a response obfuscation module connected to the ArbiterPUF circuit. The invention also includes a CRP obfuscation method for resisting machine learning attacks with strong PUF, comprising the following steps: S1: Configure the system, input the original excitation signal C to the ROPUF circuit to generate an output response R1, and cyclically shift the output response R1 N times to obtain N different output responses R1'. This invention can effectively resist machine learning attacks, and through the ArbiterPUF and obfuscation logic unit, it can reduce the correlation between excitation and response to a certain extent, making it impossible for machine learning attacks to obtain the original excitation-response pair, ultimately greatly reducing the attack prediction rate, while also having low hardware overhead.
