• Title: CycPUF: Cyclic Physical Unclonable Function
• Authors: Michael Dominguez, Amin Rezaei,
• Abstract summary: We introduce feedback signals into traditional delay-based PUF designs to give them a wider range of possible output behaviors. Based on our analysis, cyclic PUFs produce responses that can be binary, steady-state, oscillating, or pseudo-random under fixed challenges. The security gain of the proposed cyclic PUFs is also shown against state-of-the-art attacks.

• Abstract: Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) leverage manufacturing process imperfections that cause propagation delay discrepancies for the signals traveling along these paths. While PUFs can be used for device authentication and chip-specific key generation, strong PUFs have been shown to be vulnerable to machine learning modeling attacks. Although there is an impression that combinational circuits must be designed without any loops, cyclic combinational circuits have been shown to increase design security against hardware intellectual property theft. In this paper, we introduce feedback signals into traditional delay-based PUF designs such as arbiter PUF, ring oscillator PUF, and butterfly PUF to give them a wider range of possible output behaviors and thus an edge against modeling attacks. Based on our analysis, cyclic PUFs produce responses that can be binary, steady-state, oscillating, or pseudo-random under fixed challenges. The proposed cyclic PUFs are implemented in field programmable gate arrays, and their power and area overhead, in addition to functional metrics, are reported compared with their traditional counterparts. The security gain of the proposed cyclic PUFs is also shown against state-of-the-art attacks.

  Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) leverage inherent, non-clonable physical randomness to generate unique input-output pairs. Quantum PUFs (QPUFs) extend this concept by using quantum states as input-output pairs. We show that no random unitary QPUF can achieve existential unforgeability against Quantum Polynomial Time adversaries. We introduce a second model where the QPUF functions as a nonunitary quantum channel, which also guarantees existential unforgeability.

  We present a novel controller synthesis method that does not rely on any explicit representation of the noise distributions. First, we abstract the continuous control system into a finite-state model that captures noise by probabilistic transitions between discrete states. We use state-of-the-art verification techniques to provide guarantees on the interval Markov decision process and compute a controller for which these guarantees carry over to the original control system.

  We formalize the class of Classical Readout Quantum PUFs (CR-QPUFs) using the statistical query (SQ) model.

We demonstrate how a malicious party can learn CR-QPUF characteristics and forge the signature of a quantum device.

  This paper proposes a generic design of provably secure PUFs, called hybrid locked PUFs(HLPUFs) An HLPUF uses a classical PUF, and encodes the output into non-orthogonal quantum states to hide the outcomes of the underlying CPUF from any adversary. We show that by exploiting non-classical properties of quantum states, the HLPUF allows the server to reuse the challenge-response pairs for further client authentication.
