Anti-tamper techniques for protecting a program code portion against tampering provide for defining a sequence of code segments having a root-code segment and a plurality of sub-code segment. Each sub-code segment is provided with an integrity checking portion for checking the integrity of a target code segment. At runtime, the integrity checking portion of a given sub-code segment carries out a checking procedure on the respective target code segment to obtain a runtime result which is compared with a reference result to verify that the target portion of the program has not been tampered with.
