In the field of computer enabled cryptography, such as a keyed block cipher having a plurality of sequenced rounds, the cipher is hardened against attack by a protection process. The protection process uses block lengths that are larger or smaller than and not an integer multiple of those of an associated standard cipher, and without using message padding. This is operative in conjunction with standard block ciphers such as the AES, DES or triple DES ciphers, and also with various block cipher cryptographic modes such as CBC or EBC.
