Atomic-scale imperfections in graphene transistors generate unique wireless fingerprints that cannot be copied or predicted, ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. In cryptography and within embedded security ICs, the physically unclonable function (PUF) is used to create keys that are generated on-demand and ...

Despite the rigorous process controls for factories, anyone who has worked on hardware can tell you that parts may look identical but are not the same. Everything from silicon defects to microscopic ...

The development comes from Rice University, where scientists have applied integrated circuit design to construct new approach for creating secure keys and identifiers on Internet of Things ...

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) represent a class of security primitives that exploit the intrinsic randomness in material properties to generate unique digital fingerprints. By harnessing the ...

“We introduce a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) based on an ultra-fast chaotic network known as a Hybrid Boolean Network (HBN) implemented on a field programmable gate array. The network, ...

(Nanowerk News) The ubiquity of electronic devices makes it essential to use encryption and anti-counterfeiting tools to protect the privacy and security of users. With the growing expansion of the ...

Security experts have been excited about the promise of physically unclonable function (PUF) technology for many years. It wasn’t until recently, however, that reliable, cost-effective ICs with ...

a, An illustration of liquid crystal polymer-based random wrinkles observed using a microscope and converted into a binary code, random and unique, and used as a PUF. Liquid crystals have different ...

Download the PDF of the fourth chapter of the “The Cryptography Handbook.” It takes a detailed look at the physically unclonable function, or PUF, which generates a unique key to support crypto ...
