Abstract
The invention concerns a method for controlling access to encrypted data (CT) by control words (CW), said control words being received by a security module in control messages (ECM) and returned to a unit operating on the encrypted data. Said control messages (ECM) contain at least one first control word (CW1) and a second control word (CW2), said control words each allowing access to the encrypted data (CT) during a predetermined period called cryptoperiod (CP). Said method includes the following steps: sending said encrypted data to at least one operating unit; and sending control messages (ECM) to said control unit, such a control message (ECM) containing at least two specific control words (CW1, CW2) being sent to the operating unit after sending the data encrypted by said first control word (CW1) and before sending the data encrypted by said second control word (CW2). Said method is characterized in that the time shift between sending to the operating unit the data encrypted by said first control word (CW1) and sending the control message (ECM) containing said first control word (CW1) and said second control word (CW2) is more than 75% of the cryptoperiod.
