A protection mechanism for the execution of an encryption algorithm is disclosed. In the mechanism the encryption algorithm has its execution preceded by an update of a counter stored in a reprogrammable non-volatile memory. Storing the value of the counter into the memory corresponds with the execution of the algorithm.

An embedded system and, in particular, a communication protocol suitable for a data transmission using auxiliary physical channels of such an embedded system. A transmission method suitable for such a channel includes the transmission of a data signal based on the encoding of three symbols. The message consists of a preamble allowing recognition of the symbols used, followed by the significant part of the message. The decoding of the message comprises a first step of learning the symbols used, prior to the decoding of the significant part of the message.

Methods for choosing groups for a static Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol to inhibit active attacks by an adversary are provided. In mod p groups, an even h is chosen of value approximately ( 9/16)(log2n)2, values r and n are determined using sieving and primality testing on r and n, and a value t is found to compute p=tn+1 wherein p is prime. In elliptic curve groups defined over a binary filed, a random curve is chosen, the number of points on the curve is counted and this number is checked for value of 2n wherein n is prime and n−1 meets preferred criteria. In elliptic curve groups defined over a prime field of order q, a value n=hr+1 is computed, wherein n is prime and n−1 meets preferred criteria, and a complex multiplication method is applied on n to produce a value q and an elliptic curve E defined over q and having an order n.

A system having an entropy module, a memory module and a main module is disclosed. The entropy module may be configured to generate a plurality of first random numbers. The memory module may be configured to buffer (i) the first random numbers and (ii) a plurality of second random numbers. The main module is generally configured to (i) control a first transfer of the first random numbers from the entropy module to the memory module, (ii) control a second transfer of the first random numbers from the memory module to the main module, (iii) generate the second random numbers by encrypting the first random numbers and (iv) control a third transfer of the second random numbers from the main module to the memory module. The generation of the first random numbers and the generation of the second random numbers may be performed in parallel.
摘要:
An elliptic curve random number generator avoids escrow keys by choosing a point Q on the elliptic curve as verifiably random. An arbitrary string is chosen and a hash of that string computed. The hash is then converted to a field element of the desired field, the field element regarded as the x-coordinate of a point Q on the elliptic curve and the x-coordinate is tested for validity on the desired elliptic curve. If valid, the x-coordinate is decompressed to the point Q, wherein the choice of which is the two points is also derived from the hash value. Intentional use of escrow keys can provide for back up functionality. The relationship between P and Q is used as an escrow key and stored by for a security domain. The administrator logs the output of the generator to reconstruct the random number with the escrow key.
