摘要 |
The invention provides a device (1) for encrypting or decrypting data packets, comprising storage means (14) for temporarily storing data packets, identification means (15) for identifying data packets, processing means (11, 12, 13) for cryptographically processing data packets, and memory means (16) for storing cryptographic information. The processing means (11, 12, 13) comprise, according to the invention, a first (11) and a second (12) cryptographic element, the first cryptographic element (11) being designed for generating, on the basis of a first starting value, processing data for cryptographically processing a data packet, and the second cryptographic element (12) being designed for generating, on the basis of a second starting value, the first starting value. In addition, the processing means (11, 12, 13) according to the invention are designed for forming, on the basis of a cryptographically processed data packet, the second starting value, thereby ensuring the synchronization between corresponding encrypting and decrypting devices. <IMAGE> |
