A method for protecting data includes encrypting information to generate a first tweak, combining a data block with the first tweak, encrypting the tweaked data block to form encrypted data, combining the encrypted data with the first tweak, and providing the combined encrypted data for storage in a memory address. Storing the combined encrypted data at the memory address generates a first stimulus different from a second stimulus generated by storing same encrypted data combined with a second tweak at the memory address. The first stimulus is generated based on the first tweak and the second stimulus is generated based on the second tweak.

A block cipher method and apparatus using round repetition for providing, from a plaintext message (10), a cipher-text message (50) and a global tag (52) is disclosed. The plaintext message is converted into a plurality of ordered plaintext blocks (11) which are successively processed during a round for computing:—a cryptogram (30) by encrypting input data (20) using a single cryptographic key, said cryptogram comprising a first segment (31) and a second segment (32)—a ciphertext block (51) by performing a first operation (41) using, as operands: said first segment (31) said current plaintext block (11) and said second segment (32). 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 (42) using computed authentication local tags as operands.

Methods and apparatus to support reliable digital communications without integrity metadata

A data processing system includes technology to enable implicit integrity to be used for digital communications. That technology comprises a hardware processor and an implicit integrity engine (IIE) responsive to the processor. For instance, in response to the data processing system receiving a communication that contains a message, the IIE is to automatically analyze the communication to determine whether the message was sent with implicit integrity. If the message was sent with implicit integrity, the IIE is to automatically use a pattern matching algorithm to analyze entropy characteristics of a plaintext version of the message, and to automatically determine whether the message has low entropy, based on results of the pattern matching algorithm and a predetermined entropy threshold. If the message does not have low entropy, the IIE is to automatically determine that the message has been corrupted. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
