Abstract
Embedded and IoT applications are becoming an essential part of our day-to-day activities. Billions of devices are getting connected through IoT infrastructure. Intellectual Properties (IP) are used to develop embedded and IoT applications. IoT devices and IPs risk of hardware security and counterfeiting of electronic components. Traditional cryptographic methods necessitate costly memory to store the security key with powerful computers to execute them. These criteria are difficult to meet for tiny embedded and IoT infrastructure. If the attacker obtains the key, the entire cryptographic system will be in trouble. PUF (physically unclonable function) is a viable technique for successfully and efficiently addressing these issues. A PUF generates a unique response as a device-specific signature to identify an integrated circuit (IC). Apart from that, the PUF is tamper-proof against physically invasive attacks. A PUF safeguards against IP theft and counterfeiting because of these capabilities. Chip authentication, reverse engineering, secure key generation, and trustworthy computing are all issues that researchers must be solved. Arbiter PUF and Ring Oscillator PUF are the most popular ‘delay’ based PUF. In this chapter, Ring-oscillator PUF is implemented on the Xilinx Zed board (ZYNQ Evaluation and Development Kit xc7z020clg484-1) FPGA using Xilinx Vivado 2016.1
