Polymorphic PUF: Exploiting reconfigurability of CPU+FPGA SoC to resist modeling attack

Jing Ye, Yue Hong Gong, Yu Hen Hu, Xiaowei Li · 2017

Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) is severely threatened by modeling attacks. This paper proposes a novel Polymorphic PUF for CPU+FPGA SoC. We fully exploit the dynamic reconfigurability of the SoC to minimize the Challenge Response Pair (CRP) correlation so as to resist modeling attacks. An asymmetric RO pair is proposed to produce the response. Experiments on real CPU+FPGA SoCs show the high resistance of Polymorphic PUF against modeling attacks, with good uniformity and uniqueness.
