Block encryption method for encrypting / decrypting messages and encryption device for implementing this method

摘要

A block cipher method and apparatus using round repetition for providing, from a plaintext message, a ciphertext message and a global tag is disclosed; the plaintext message is converted into a plurality of ordered plaintext blocks which are successively processed during a round for computing: a cryptogram by encrypting input data using a single cryptographic key, said cryptogram comprising a first segment and a second segment; a ciphertext block by performing a first operation using, as operands: said first segment said current plaintext block and said second segment; at each next round said input data is newly determined based on the current ciphertext block and an updated reproducible data; the ciphertext message is determined by concatenating the ciphertext blocks and the global tag by a second operation using computed authentication local tags as operands.
