Provided is a security device, an electronic device, a secure boot management system, a method for generating a boot image and a method for executing a boot chain. The security device includes a key deriver configured to receive a root key and a protected boot key included in a boot image and generate a derived key according to a key protection method using the root key and the protected boot key, a key processor configured to perform verification according to the key protection method using the generated derived key to extract a boot key from the protected boot key included in the boot image, a secure booter configured to perform verification on a protected execution image included in the boot image using the extracted boot key, and a processor configured to execute a verified execution image on which the verification has been completed by the secure booter.

A Montgomery inverse calculation device includes a plurality of registers each storing a value of a variable, a modulus register storing a modulus, a multiplier performing multiplication on the modulus. A comparator compares the value of the variable stored in each of the registers with an output value of the multiplier and generates a plurality of control signals. A plurality of shifters shifts bits of a value of a variable stored in a corresponding register among the registers in response to at least one first control signal, and a quotient generation block calculates a quotient of mod 2m with respect to values output from some of the shifters in response to a second control signal. A calculation block calculates an updated value of an output value of each of the shifters using the quotient in response to at least one third control signal.
