A cryptographic process (such as the AES cipher) which uses table look up operations (TLUs) is hardened against reverse engineering attacks intended to recover the table contents and thereby the cipher key. This hardening involves removing any one-to-one correspondence between the TLU inputs and outputs, by altering the output of the TLU dynamically, e.g. at each execution (call) of the TLU. This is done by increasing the size of the tables, applying a dynamically determined mask value to the table input and/or output, or using an inverse of the table. |
