Patent Primary Examiner
A smart hardware security engine using biometric features and hardware-specific features is provided. The smart security engine can combine one or more entropy sources, including individually distinguishable biometric features, and hardware-specific features to perform secret key generation for user registration and authentication. Such hybrid signatures may be distinct from person-to-person (e.g., due to the biometric features) and from device-to-device (e.g., due to the hardware-specific features) while varying over time. Thus, embodiments described herein can be used for personal device authentication as well as secret random key generation, significantly reducing the scope of an attack.
