Abstract:
A solid-state imaging device 10 includes a pixel portion 20 in which a plurality of pixels including photodiodes are arranged in rows and columns, a reading part 90 for reading pixel signals from the pixel portion, and a key generation part 82 which generates a unique key by using at least one of pixel fluctuation information or reading part fluctuation information. According to this configuration, the tamper resistance of the unique key can be secured and consequently alteration and falsification of images can be prevented.
