Abstract: The invention discloses a challenge screening method for improving the stability of a strong Physical Unclonable Function (PUF). If the stability of the group of challenges (GOCs) is quantized by 1 or 0, the GOCs are defined as stable challenges or unstable challenges respectively; the GOCs and the stability of corresponding responses are defined as a challenge-stability pair (CSP); a machining learning training dataset is constructed through CSPs for obtaining a screening model, to associate the challenge stability with the screening model; during actual application of the strong PUF, the challenge stability of a strong PUF is determined through the screening model, and stable challenges of the strong PUF are screened out to form a stable challenge set, which is input into the strong PUF to extract identity information. The challenge screening method can effectively improve the stability of various strong PUFs and has better effect with external disturbance increasing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a TFET with an OR-AND logic function. By arranging a horizontal channel and a vertical channel in different directions, three gates are not connected and will not be affected by each other, and can control the current of a whole channel jointly; when a first gate and a second gate are both at a high level, the TFET will be turned on, and when the first gate and a third gate are both at a high level, the TFET will also be turned on; the horizontal channel not only isolates the second gate from the third gate, but also reduces the strength of coupling between the second gate and the third gate, so only a small current passes through the horizontal channel when the second gate and the third gate are both at a high level, and the TFET will not be turned on at this moment.

Abstract: Disclosed is a software PUF based on an RISC-V processor for IoT security. A 32-bit RISC-V processor is used to generate abnormal information results in an abnormal operating state under a low voltage, and the abnormal information results are used to represent the features of the 32-bit RISC-V processor; 5-bit binary data obtained by comparing the abnormal information results with normal information results has high randomness and uniqueness and it is extremely difficult to directly extract internal abnormal information result from a hardware circuit of the 32-bit RISC-V processor, so modeling attacks based on the 5-bit binary data calculated according to the abnormal information results of the 32-bit RISC-V processor are almost impossible; in addition, when the 32-bit RISC-V processor is in an abnormal operating state, the operating frequency of the 32-bit RISC-V processor is dynamically adjusted through a frequency compensation method.

Abstract: Disclosed is an ML attack resisting method for a strong PUF. Response signals generated by applying multiple sets of different challenge signals to a strong PUF are used as information to be encrypted, and are put in order to form a plaintext matrix. Then a matrix multiplication operation is performed on two plaintext matrixes to generate a ciphertext matrix. Next, elements in a transform matrix obtained by performing binary transformation on the ciphertext matrix are used as final responses, which are in one-to-one correspondence with original challenge signals and are used as final CRPs of the matrix-encrypted strong PUF.
