  • Method and apparatus for cipher detection
    Patent number: 9742438
    Abstract: An embodiment of a method and apparatus for ciphering data. Data is provided for ciphering. The data is ciphered in a plurality of steps. For each step, determining an encoding for error detection of the data being processed within the step. Determining an output error detection encoding for the step. Processing data of the round to provide output error detection encoding. Then, verifying the encoding against a determined output error detection encoding. If the output error detection encoding is not the same as the determined error detection encoding, providing a signal indicating the presence of an error within the cipher process.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and apparatus for cipher fault detection
    Patent number: 9417951
    Abstract: What is disclosed is an embodiment of a method for ciphering data. Data is provided for ciphering thereof. The data is ciphered in a plurality of steps. For each step, an encoding for error detection of the data for being processed within the step is determined. An output error detection encoding for the step is determined. The data for being processed within the round is processed to provide output error detection encoding which is then verified against the determined output error detection encoding. When the output error detection encoding is other than same as the determined error detection encoding, providing a signal indicative of an error within the cipher process.
