Lightweight ciphers based on chaotic Map -- LFSR architectures

In this paper, we propose and analyze two different stream ciphers based on a Skew Tent Map and a Modified Logistic Map respectively. In order to improve the randomness of these systems, a single method for increasing the period length of the generated sequences has been applied. The results prove that the randomness of these systems can be severally increased by using this method, making these systems suitable for secure communications.

Introduction to Physically Unclonable Fuctions: Properties and Applications

During the last years, Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs) have become a very important research area in the field of hardware security due to their capability of generating volatile secret keys as well as providing a low-cost authentication. In this paper, an introduction to Physically Unclonable Functions is given, including their definition, properties and applications. Finally, as an example of how to design a PUF, the general structure of a ring oscillator PUF is presented.
