A side channel attack utilizes information gained from the physical implementation of a cryptosystem. Software and hardware-based systems and methods for preventing side channel attacks are presented. Cryptographic hardware may introduce dummy operations to compensate for conditional math operations in certain functions such as modular exponentiation. Cryptographic hardware may also introduce random stalls of the data path to introduce alterations in the power profile for the operation. A cryptographic function may be mapped to a micro code sequence having a plurality of instructions. Firmware in the cryptosystem may alter the micro code sequence by altering the order of instructions, add dummy operations in the micro code sequence, break the micro code sequence into multiple sub micro code sequences and/or change the register location for source and destination operands used in the sequence. These alterations are designed to randomly change the timing and power profile of the requested function.

System for providing a secure file service includes an MLS file service module (300) comprised of a cryptographic processor (302). The MLS file service module also includes an MLS file system (301) hosted by the cryptographic processor. A secure user processor (402) includes programming and communications hardware for requesting at least one classified file from the MLS file service module. The cryptographic processor includes cryptographic hardware and software to decrypt the classified file. The cryptographic processor is also performs an integrity check on the classified file. Once the file is decrypted and its integrity checked by the cryptographic processor, the MLS file service module serves the classified file to the secure user processor in decrypted form. If the classified file is an executable file, the method also includes selectively enabling a write function for program memory of the secure user processor. This write function is disabled immediately after the classified executable file has been loaded into the program memory to guard against self modifying programs.

The present invention relates to a system and method for secure verification of electronic transactions, and in particular secure processing of personal identification numbers when third party processors are involved. In an embodiment, a variable length PIN associated with a credit card or debit card is encrypted, then hashed using a one-way hash algorithm before it is passed along to and stored by a third party processor. The encrypted-hashed PIN always remains in an encrypted form while in the hands of the third party processor. At the third party processor, secure cryptographic hardware is used to store the one-way hash algorithm. Encrypted PIN values received for verification are converted and hashed using the one-way hash algorithm, and the resulting hashed-encrypted value is compared against the hashed-encrypted PIN values previously stored at the third party processor. As the PIN has a variable length, and the third party processor has no access to the hash algorithm, the encrypted PIN values are highly resistant to reverse engineering or decryption.

A system is provided for distribution of device key sets over a network in a protected software environment (PSE). In the system, a client device includes a connection interface for receiving a crypto hardware (CH) token belonging to a user, untrusted software, a quoting enclave, and a PSE for generating a provisioning request for a device key set. An attestation proxy server (APS) receives the provisioning message using a first network connection, and transmits the provisioning message to an online provisioning server (OPS) using a second network connection.

A method and a device are disclosed for the low-cost implementation even of high-performance encryption functions in an encryptor. The encryptor may be composed merely of PC software or the like, or of any other terminal/information system with integrated Vernam cipher which does not need to be supported by expensive crypto-hardware for the actual encryption process. The crypto-hardware is made either of a chipcard or a multifunctional PC interface adapter (e.g., PCMCIA module) with built-in special crypto-hardware. The encryptor, on the other hand, is a conventional personal computer, software or another terminal which, however, with the exception of the very simple Vernam cipher (e.g., EXOR), needs no further crypto-technology even for broad-band applications in software. The external crypto-modules contain all the complex crypto-functions which generate the Vernam key in reserve, the reserves being temporarily stored in an intermediate storage until they are gradually used up by the encryption process through logic operations of the method. The storage may be installed either in the PC or terminal, or also in the crypto-module. The encryptor always operates with the same Vernam cipher, even if the external crypto- or PCMCIA modules use different symmetrical and asymmetrical ciphers. External crypto-modules in the form of chipcards or PCMCIA modules are inexpensive to manufacture. All the complex crypto-functions are located outside of the encryptor. They are interchangeable by module and can be implemented in the proposed low-cost and somewhat lower-speed external crypto-modules.
