  • Patent number: 7403620
    Abstract: A method of cyphering and/or decyphering, by an integrated circuit, of a digital input code by means of several keys, comprising: dividing the code into several data blocks of same dimensions; and applying to said blocks several turns of a cyphering or decyphering comprising submitting each block to at least one same non-linear transformation and of subsequently combining each block with a different key at each turn, the operands being masked, upon execution of the method, by at least one first random number having the size of the code and all the blocks of which have the same value by combining, by an XOR-type function, the input and output blocks of the non-linear transformation with said random number.
    Type: Grant
