Fingerprinting Semiconductor devices: Traceability and Information protection
(Bertrand Cambou from High Entropy Security)
Abstract: Enhancing the traceability of electronic components is important for the semiconductor industry to avoid fake devices infected with trojans and viruses. It is also important to block counterfeits of secure elements used in hardware security such as credit cards, tokens, and physical unclonable functions (PUFs). We are proposing the generation of unique fingerprints of each chip leveraging the small but identifiable differences occurring during manufacturing making fake chips detectable. To prevent certain attacks, we are also suggesting AI identification of the unique behavior of each chip after repetitive read cycles and test its “liveness”.
