As the Internet of Things promises a proliferation in the number of distributed and unsupervised mobile computing devices, lightweight device authentication protocols for counterfeit prevention and secure communication becomes paramount. Physically unclonable function (PUF) primitives have recently been proposed as a means for replacing non-volatile memories (which are prone to physical attacks) for generating and storing cryptographic keys for security-based functions. This research proposal addresses the reliability issues involved in designing a static random access memory (SRAM)-based PUF circuit block, and then integrates it into an authentication circuit for use in a hardware-based security subsystems. The key research objectives of this proposal are: (i) the design of an SRAM-based PUF primitive, (ii) the development of design methodologies to mitigate the impact of process, voltage, and temperature induced variability - issues more prevalent in nanoscale CMOS technologies, and (iii) the realization of the SRAM PUF primitive in a low-overhead device authentication system.

随着物联网承诺分布式和无监督移动计算设备数量的激增，用于防伪和安全通信的轻量级设备身份验证协议变得至关重要。最近提出了物理不可克隆函数（PUF）原语作为替代非易失性存储器（容易受到物理攻击）的方法，用于生成和存储基于安全的函数的加密密钥。该研究提案解决了设计基于静态随机存取存储器 (SRAM) 的 PUF 电路块所涉及的可靠性问题，然后将其集成到用于基于硬件的安全子系统的身份验证电路中。该提案的主要研究目标是：(i) 基于 SRAM 的 PUF 原语的设计，(ii) 开发设计方法以减轻工艺、电压和温度引起的变化的影响 - 问题更多 流行于纳米级 CMOS 技术，以及 (iii) 在低开销设备认证系统中实现 SRAM PUF 原语。
