GANTT

The activity of the AUTENTICO project is focused on the achievement of 4 milestones (MS) which are strategic and functional for the correct and effective development of the project itself. These milestones are listed below:

  • MS1 (M4): Definition of functional technical specifications for the creation of an authentication system based on the integration of non-clonable physical functions of different types.
  • MS2 (M12): Implementation of non-integrated PUF-based technological solutions and initial release of the prototype hybrid safety system.
  • MS3 (M20): Realization of the advanced version of the PUF-based prototype hybrid safety system.
  • MS4 (M24): Completion of technology transfer activity.
