Abstract
A device of executing a cryptographic operation on bit vectors, the execution of the cryptographic operation includes the execution of at least one arithmetic addition operation between a first operand and a second operand. Each operand comprises a set of components, each component corresponding to a given bit position of the operand. The device comprises a set of elementary adders, each elementary adder being associated with a given bit position of the operands and being configured to perform a bitwise addition between a component of the first operand at the given bit position and the corresponding component of the second operand at the given bit position using the carry generated by the computation performed by the elementary adder corresponding to the previous bit position. Each elementary adder has a sum output corresponding to the bitwise addition and a carry output, the result of the arithmetic addition operation being derived from the sum outputs provided by each elementary adder. The device is configured to apply a mask to each operand component input of at least some of the elementary adders using a masking logical operation, the mask being a random number.
