Abstract
Internet of things (IoT) systems consist of many devices that send their sensor data to cloud servers. Cryptographic authentication is essential for maintaining the consistency of these systems, and lightweight authentication in particular is required because most IoT devices are resource-constrained. Physically unclonable functions (PUF) are promising tools for protecting such devices from cyber-attacks. It can naturally generate a unique but noisy (i.e., erroneous) key for a device without implementing costly secure key storage in the device. However, a costly error correction technique is required to remove the noise. In this paper, we propose a lightweight authentication scheme with a noisy key (i.e., an uncorrected key) {\em naturally} derived from a PUF. The security of our scheme is based on a combinatorial problem with small noise. We also discuss its security and feasibility.
