A cryptographic device formed as an integrated circuit encapsulated in an integrated circuit package. The cryptographic device decrypts information having a first encrypted format that is input into the cryptographic device producing information in a non-encrypted format. The information in the non-encrypted format is subsequently re-encrypted into a second encrypted format which is output from the cryptographic device. The decryption and re-encryption operations are accomplished entirely within the cryptographic device. |
