    摘要: A point of sale system has a display for receiving touch inputs, a controller to receive the touch inputs from the display, and a secure controller to receive touch input data from the controller. The system also has a card interface module and a contactless interface module to provide encrypted data to the secure controller. The secure controller can operate in either a secure mode or a non-secure mode. When a non-secure mode is engaged, the secure controller provides the touch input data to a processor. When a secure mode is engaged, the secure controller blocks at least a portion of the touch input data from the processor.

    摘要: A device may include a physically unclonable function (PUF) source that has at least one fuse embedded in the device. The PUF source may be responsive to an input for transmitting a signal through the fuse and providing a PUF value based on a measurement of such signal. The device also has circuitry that is configured to modify the fuse by transmitting a signal of sufficiently high current or voltage through the fuse to change its resistance, thereby changing a response of the PUF source to the input.

    摘要: An electronic device may include a printed circuit board having a physically unclonable function (PUF) source. The electronic device may also include an integrated circuit (IC) chip positioned on the printed circuit board, and the first PUF source may be embedded in or formed on the printed circuit board external to the IC chip. The IC chip has processing circuitry that is configured to determine PUF data based on the PUF source. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine a cryptographic key or authentication token based on the PUF data and to perform at least one secure operation using the cryptographic key or authentication token.

    摘要: A transaction device includes a bootloader that a processing unit executes during device startup. The bootloader causes the processing unit to access values from a persistent memory that are relevant to whether a glitch has occurred on a power supply for the processing unit. Based on the values that are acquired from the persistent memory, the processing unit may implement countermeasures, such as disabling certain device operations or delaying the device booting process.
