Abstract

The paper deals with the topic of lightweight authentication and secure communication for constrained hardware devices such as IoT or embedded devices. In the paper, protocols based on both symmetric and asymmetric schemes are presented, utilizing a PUF/TRNG combined module, showing it is advantageous to have single module that will allow generation of both TRNG and PUF at the same time. This approach minimizes implementation requirements and operational resource consumption. Moreover, it allows the simplification of the overall key management process as the proposed protocols do not require to store secrets on the devices themselves. This paper is the extended and revised version of the paper entitled “Lightweight Authentication and Secure Communication Suitable for IoT Devices” [1] presented at the 6th International Conference on Information Systems Security and Privacy (ICISSP) 2020.
