  • Publication number: 20210243006
    Abstract: Integrated circuits for modular multiplication of two integers for a cryptographic method, and methods for the cryptographic processing of data based on modular multiplication are herein disclosed. For example, an integrated circuit for modular multiplication of two integers for a cryptographic method has a processor that represents the integers to be multiplied in Montgomery representation with a specified Montgomery representation parameter and a specified modulus, and calculates the result of the modular multiplication of the integers to be multiplied in Montgomery representation iteratively from the least significant word to the most significant word, where for a word calculated in an iteration, the product of the word with a specified factor is added to the words of subsequent iterations, the specified factor given by the product of the negative inverse of the least significant word of the modulus and the modulus, without the least significant word of the product, plus one.
