摘要
In a method for protecting a calculation in a cryptographic algorithm, the calculation obtaining input data so as to create output data, input data for the calculation are initially provided. Subsequently, the calculation is performed so as to obtain the output data of the calculation. After the calculation has been performed, a verification is carried out as to whether the input data was changed during the calculation, to be precise using a verification algorithm which differs from the calculation itself. If the verification proves that the input data was changed during the calculation, forwarding of the output data is suppressed. By doing so, outputting of incorrect results of the calculation of the cryptographic algorithm is prevented with a high degree of certainty, since the input data is particularly susceptible to hardware attacks. In addition, the input data may be examined with a view to their integrity with little expenditure compare to calculating the cryptographic algorithm itself.
