Popis: | The paper deals with the security problems in chaotic-based cryptography. In particular, the 0–1 test for chaos is used to detect hardware Trojans in electronic circuits – generators of chaotic bit sequences. The proposed method of detecting hardware Trojans is based on analyzing the original bit sequences through the 0–1 test yielding a simple result, either a number close to 1, when the examined bit sequence is chaotic, or a number close to 0, when the sequence is non-chaotic. A complementary result is a graph of translation variables qc and pc which form a basis of the 0–1 test. The method does not require any extra corrections and can be applied to relatively short sequences of bits. This makes the method quite attractive as the security problems are dealt with at the chaotic generator level, with no need to apply any extractors of randomness. The method is illustrated by numerical examples of simulated Trojans in chaotic bit generators based on the analog Lindberg circuit as well as a discrete system based on the logistic map. |
