  • Publication number: 20070147604
    Abstract: Disclosed is an integrated circuit having an encryption core. The integrated circuit includes an encoder configured to encrypt an input plaintext using a first cipher key to produce a ciphertext, a decoder configured to decrypt the ciphertext using a second cipher to produce a decrypted plaintext, and a comparator configured to compare the input plaintext with the decrypted plaintext to produce a comparison result.
