Abstract

See full text

Circuitry which performs modular mathematics to solve the equation C=M.sup.k mod n and n is performed in a manner to mask the exponent k's signature from timing or power monitoring attacks. The modular exponentation function is performed in a normalized manner such that binary ones and zeros in the exponent are calculated by being modulo-squared and modulo-multiplied.
