Abstract:
An iterative calculation is performed on a first number and a second number, while protecting the iterative calculation against side-channel attacks. For each bit of the second number, successively, an iterative calculation routine of the bit of the second number is determined. The determination is made independent of a state of the bit. The determined iterative calculation routine of the bit is executed. A result of the iterative calculation is generated based on a result of the execution of the determined iterative calculation routine of a last bit of the second number.
