چکیده

Physical Unclonable Functions can be used for secure key generation in cryptographic applications. It is explained how methods from coding theory must be applied in order to ensure reliable key regeneration. Based on previous work, we show ways how to obtain better results with respect to error probability and codeword length. Also, an example based on Generalized Concatenated codes is given, which improves upon used coding schemes for PUFs.

Timing Attack Resilient Decoding Algorithms for Physical Unclonable Functions

This paper deals with the application of list decoding of Reed–Solomon codes to a concatenated code for key reproduction using Physical Unclonable Functions. The resulting codes achieve a higher error-correction performance at the same code rate than known schemes in this scenario. We also show that their decoding algorithms can be protected from side-channel attacks on the runtime both by mask...

Choice of Optimal Error-correcting Code for Physical Unclonable Functions

This thesis explores error-correcting codes which can be used in physical unclonable function (PUF) applications. We investigate linear block codes and concatenated codes, which are traditionally used with PUFs, and compare them to convolutional codes using the criteria of error correction capability, decoder hardware requirements, flexibility of code parameters, and code rate. The application ...

Using Convolutional Codes for Key Extraction in Physical Unclonable Functions

Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) exploit variations in the manufacturing process to derive bit sequences from integrated circuits, which can be used as secure cryptographic keys. Instead of storing the keys in an insecure, non-volatile memory, they can be reproduced when needed. Since the reproduced sequences are not stable due to physical reasons, error correction must be applied. Recently...

A New Error Correction Scheme for Physical Unclonable Functions

Error correction is an indispensable component when Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are used in cryptographic applications. So far, there exist schemes that obtain helper data, which they need within the error correction process. We introduce a new scheme, which only uses an error correcting code without any further helper data. The main idea is to construct for each PUF instance an indivi...

On Error Correction for Physical Unclonable Functions

Physical Unclonable Functions evaluate manufacturing variations to generate secure cryptographic keys for embedded systems without secure key storage. It is explained how methods from coding theory are applied in order to ensure reliable key reproduction. We show how better results can be obtained using code classes and decoding principles not used for this scenario before. These methods are ex...
