Authentication of electronics components for cyber-physical systems

One of the main directions of cyber-physical systems safety ensuring is the creation and implementation of technologies for providing the electronics components a resistance to various types of external influences. The relevance of this problem is the increase of a rate of counterfeit products in electronics as an international trend. This determines a need to authenticate the products intended for responsible applications. In addition to the issue of counterfeit, the electronics components authentication is necessary for a reliable and informative assessment of their resistance to the impacts from external factors. One of the main tasks of the methodology for assessing the resistance is to establish an effective optimal balance between the reliability of the test results and the procedure laboriousness. The difficulties of this optimization are related mainly to the number of destroyed samples, the volume of collected information, ensuring of a counterfeit identification. Hereby we present an effective authentication procedure combining the "destructive" and "non-destructive" types of checks with the counterfeit identification, sample heterogeneity, and suspicious items. Improvement of the sampling procedure for testing is presented as well. The experimental results of authentication are discussed
