A method for secure distribution of data or programs, the transmitted data being provided with an electronic signature. The unit receiving the data or programs checks the electronic signature by executing a modular multiplication, thereby necessitating a multiplication and a division thereof. According to the invention, the unit receiving the data or program checks the signature by performing a modular multiplication according to the Montgomery method wherein an additional multiplication by a factor on the basis of base 2 and even exponents is performed.
