  • Patent number: 8909689
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a first shift amount calculation unit counts the number of continuous zeros from a less significant bit toward a more significant bit of an intermediate result of a computation of Montgomery multiplication result z and calculates a first shift amount. A second shift amount calculation unit counts the number of continuous zeros from a less significant bit toward a more significant bit of redundant-binary-represented integer x and calculates a second shift amount. An addition/subtraction unit calculates the intermediate result by adding/subtracting, with respect to the intermediate result which has been bit-shifted by the first shift amount, the integer p, and the integer y which has been bit-shifted by the second shift amount. An output unit outputs, as the Montgomery multiplication result z, the intermediate result when the sum of the first shift amounts is equal to the number of bits of the integer p.

  • Patent number: 7496759
    Abstract: According to embodiments of the present invention, in a case where a ground for security is laid in difficulty in executing an inverse function operation of a trapdoor one-way function, represented by an RSA problem, even when a signature order advances, an increase of a size of a key can be inhibited. For example, when the first partial data ?i?1,L exceeding (k0+k1) bits when concatenating a random number ri of k0 bits is excluded from an input of binary operation on an input side of a signature generation function. Accordingly, a size of an operation result si of the binary operation is set to be constant at (k0+k2) bits, and, as a result, an input size (key length k bits) of an RSA signature generation function is set to be constant.

  • Patent number: 7305085
    Abstract: In each stage, multiple parallel nonlinear transformation modules each perform local lower-level diffusion, then a diffusion module performs higher-level diffusion over the block width and multiple parallel nonlinear transformation modules each perform local lower-level diffusion. This operation is repeated a predetermined number of times corresponding to the number of stages. Each nonlinear transformation module is formed into the nested SPN structure by arranging alternately nonlinear transformation modules and a diffusion module. The diffusion module performs linear transformation for spreading the state of at least one bit in input data to the preceding nonlinear transformation modules to at least one bit in input data to the succeeding nonlinear transformation modules.
