Abstract
The disclosure creates a method for generating a proof-of-work. In the method, a data block is associated with a nonce. Then, the data block associated with the nonce is encrypted into a tag using a secret key. In a further step it is checked whether the tag meets a predetermined criterion. If the tag does not meet the predetermined criterion, the nonce is varied and the association and encryption are repeated until the check shows that the tag meets the criterion. In addition, the disclosure relates to the implementation of the proof-of-work during the process of authentication, encryption, transmission and reception of a message. In addition, the disclosure relates to a computer program and a device for carrying out the method.
