Abstract
In one embodiment, a processing device includes a symmetric block cipher configured to encrypt plaintext blocks yielding respective ciphertext blocks, obfuscation circuitry configured to obfuscate the respective ciphertext blocks responsively to an obfuscation secret yielding respective obfuscated ciphertext blocks and an interface to send the respective obfuscated ciphertext blocks to at least one remote processing device. In one embodiment, the processing device provides side-channel attack protection within a symmetric key scheme by data obfuscation and by changing encryption/decryption keys using key manipulation so that different blocks or group of blocks of data are encrypted/decrypted using respective encryption/decryption keys.
