PUF-AQKD: A Hardware-Assisted Quantum Key Distribution Protocol for Man-in-the-Middle Attack Mitigation by Ashutosh Bhatia, Sainath Bitragunta, Kamlesh Tiwari

“…The phase shift is dictated by PUFs, which are anticipated to result in analogous (correlated) responses for devices manufactured under similar conditions but dissimilar responses in different conditions. An adversary lacking a correlated PUF response shared by Alice and Bob would inadvertently increase the Quantum Bit Error Rates (QBER) observed at Bob’s end. …”
