Abstract

See full text

For securing programs contained in a system storage and for checking their integrity, the programs are in each case coded by a symmetric cryptographic algorithm with the application of a readback secured, secret key, and a check number for each program is simultaneously formed and stored in the storage of the system. For checking the integrity, the programs are then coded again in the same manner and the check number thus obtained in each case is compared with the check number stored at the first coding. It is possible to derive from the result of comparison a criteria for activation or locking the following programs.
