In one apparatus, a number of obfuscated programming instructions are equipped to self-verify whether execution of the obfuscated programming instructions is being observed. In another apparatus, a number of obfuscated programming instruction are equipped to determine whether the apparatus is being operated in a mode that supports single step execution of the obfuscated programming instructions. In yet another apparatus, a number of obfuscated programming instruction are equipped to verify whether an amount of elapsed execution time has exceeded a threshold. In yet another apparatus, a first and a second group of obfuscated programming instruction are provided to implement a first and a second tamper resistant technique respectively, with the first and the second group of programming instructions sharing a storage location for a first and a second key value corresponding to the first and the second tamper resistant technique.
