Abstract
There is disclosed a Connected Synthetic Physically Unclonable Function (acronym CSPUF) made of a circuit configured to receive signals of one or more sensors and/or actuators in/of a computer device; determine one or more statistical properties of the noise distribution of the selected one or more of the sensors and/or actuators; receive data IN from one or more external data sources; determine one or more digital signatures (responses) from the statistical properties and the selected external data. In one embodiment, along a response R when challenged by a challenge C, the circuit is configured to receive data IN and/or to communicate data OUT from one or more external data sources. Developments describe uses and advantages of data IN and data OUT channels, e.g. static or dynamic calibration, options to disable the circuit. Other embodiments consider variants of interconnections of two CSPUF circuits, providing 'self-cycled', “iterative”, “cascaded” and other “blockchain” arrangements.
