The objective of this invention is to provide continuous remote authenticated operations for ensuring proper content processing and management in remote untrusted computing environment. The method is based on using a program that was hidden within the content protection program at the remote untrusted computing environment, e.g., an end station. The hidden program can be updated dynamically and it includes an inseparable and interlocked functionality for generating a pseudo random sequence of security signals. Only the media server that sends the content knows how the pseudo-random sequence of security signals were generated; therefore, the media server is able to check the validity of the security signals, and thereby, verify the authenticity of the programs used to process content at the remote untrusted computing environment. If the verification operation fails, the media server will stop the transmission of content to the remote untrusted computing environment.

An encryption system comprises a pseudo-random number generator (KS) for generating a long pseudo-random sequence (S) from a shorter encryption key (K) and, if necessary, a nonce value (N), and a mixing function (MX) for combining the sequence with a plaintext message (P) on a block-by-block basis, where successive blocks (S(i)) of 128 bits of the sequence are combined with successive 64-bit blocks of plaintext (P(i)) to produce successive 64-bit blocks of ciphertext. The blockwise use of a long pseudo-random sequence preserves the advantages of a block cipher in terms of data confidentiality and data integrity, as well as benefiting from the speed advantages of a stream cipher.

A method of estimating timing of at least one of the beginning and the end of a transmitted signal segment in the presence of time delay in a signal transmission channel. Each of a sequence of signal frames is provided with a pseudo-noise (PN) m-sequences, where the PN sequences satisfy selected orthogonality and closures relations.

A frequency interleaving circuit frequency-interleaves main signals generated according to sound data by parameters set according to frequencies of transmission channels. A sub-signal generating circuit generates sub-signals for transmission control including pilot signals. Mapping circuits modulate the sub-signals by using pseudo-random sequences generated based on initial values of random codes set according to frequencies of transmission channels.

An increase of a dynamic range of transmission signals can be suppressed by controlling the initial values of random codes set.
