An apparatus is disclosed for operating a symmetric cipher engine (SCE) in cipher-block chaining (CBC) mode, the apparatus comprises a crypto operation hardware comprising said SCE, an XOR stage, an apparatus for storing a chaining value comprising a state register of said SCE, an input latch supplying said crypto operation hardware with data, and an output latch. The data may be reordered for decipher operations. Furthermore, a method is disclosed for operating a SCE in CBC mode, wherein the method involves a crypto operation hardware that comprises said SCE and an XOR stage supplied with data. The method may also comprise using a state register of said SCE to apply a chaining value. Said method may comprise reordering data supplied to said crypto operation hardware for decipher operations.
