The present invention discloses an image encryption method based on an improved class boosting scheme, which comprises the following steps: acquiring parameters of a hyperchaotic system according to plaintext image information: generating weights required by class perceptron networks through the plain text image information: bringing the parameters into the hyperchaotic system to obtain chaotic sequences, and shuffling the chaotic sequences by a shuffling algorithm: pre-processing the chaotic sequences after shuffling to obtain a sequence required by encryption: and bringing a plaintext image and the sequence into an improved class boosting scheme to obtain a ciphertext image, wherein the improved class boosting scheme is realized based on the class perception networks. The method solves the problems that update and prediction functions in an original boosting network are too simple and easy to predict or the like, so as to obtain the ciphertext image with higher information entropy.

A method for physical layer secure transmission against an arbitrary number of eavesdropping antennas includes: S1: communication between legitimate transmitter Alice and legitimate receiver Bob is confirmed; S2: Alice randomly generates a key bit b.sub.k with M.sub.S bits, maps the key bit b.sub.k into a key symbol K, and performs an XOR on the key bit b.sub.k and to-be-transmitted confidential information b to obtain an encrypted bits b.sub.s; S3: Bob transmits a pilot sequence to Alice, and Alice calculates a candidate precoding space W and transmits modulated symbol streams s=(s.sub.1, . . , s.sub.N) by using precoding W(e); S4: Bob measures received signal strength of each antenna, estimates the corresponding antenna vector e, inversely maps the vector e to obtain key symbols and key bits, and demodulates the received symbol streams in sequence at each activated antenna to obtain demodulated ciphertext bits; S5: Bob performs an XOR on observed key bits and the demodulated ciphertext bits to obtain the confidential information.

It is provided an encryption hybrid model SI simulation method based on an ADS and an HSPICE. The method includes: extracting step response data of a TX end chip encryption model by using HSPICE transient simulation; externally generating a random code signal; and taking the extracted step response data and the random code signal as input sources of ADS channel simulation, to realize active simulation to the encryption hybrid model.

A data diode provides a flexible device for collecting data from a data source and transmitting the data to a data destination using one-way data transmission across a main channel. On-board processing elements allow the data diode to identify automatically the type of connectivity provided to the data diode and configure the data diode to handle the identified type of connectivity. Either or both of the inbound and outbound side of the data diode may comprise one or both of wired and wireless communication interfaces. A secure reverse channel, separate from the main channel, allows carefully predetermined communications from the data destination to the data source.

A device for providing side-channel protection to a data processing circuit is provided and includes a chaotic oscillator and a counter. The data processing circuit has an input for receiving an input signal, a power supply terminal, and an output for providing an output signal. The chaotic oscillator circuit has an input coupled to receive a control signal, and an output coupled to provide an output signal for controlling a voltage level of a power supply voltage of the data processing circuit. The counter has an input coupled to receive a clock signal, and an output coupled to control a variable parameter of the chaotic oscillator in response to the clock signal. In another embodiment, a method is provided providing the side-channel protection to the device.

Provided are methods and systems for invalidating user security tokens. An example method may include providing, by one or more nodes in a cluster, a list of revoked security tokens. The method may include receiving, by the one or more nodes, an indication of invalidating a user security token associated with a user device. The indication may include a request from the user to invalidate the user security token. The method may further include, in response to the receiving, adding, by the one or more nodes, the user security token to the list of revoked security tokens. The user security token can be added to the list of revoked security tokens prior to the expiration time of the user security token. The method may further include replicating, by the one or more nodes, the list of revoked security tokens between further nodes of the cluster.

A system for transmitting an identification code in a telecommunications system via a mobile device. The mobile device includes a component to generate embed an identification code by generating an inaudible signal. The inaudible signal is either ultrasonic or infrasonic. The mobile device also generates an audible signal based on information received from a microphone associated with the mobile device, merges the inaudible signal with the audible signal to produce a combined signal, and transmits the combined signal from the mobile device to the other device via the wireless network.

Systems, devices, and methods for generating a unique fingerprint are described herein. For example, an example integrated circuit (IC) chip includes a physically unclonable function (PUF) and an auxiliary circuit. The PUF is a hybrid Boolean network. Additionally, the auxiliary circuit is configured to receive a transient response enable signal.

A communication device and method are provided for communicating data, such as a cryptographic key, wirelessly to another communication device. The communication device and the other device each include an oscillator circuit portion, an inverter, a non-inverting buffer, and a switch for switching between the inverter and non-inverting buffer. A circular loop is formed wirelessly between the oscillator circuit portions of both devices by placing both communication devices near each other. A control circuit in each device measures a parameter such as frequency or waveform pattern of the circulating signal to determine how to position the switches. The oscillator circuit portions may be portions of the same oscillator distributed between the devices, such as a delay line-controlled oscillator or a chaotic oscillator. Inverting and not inverting the circulated signal changes the parameter of the signal so that it is difficult for an eavesdropper to learn the communication.
