Abstract
In accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure, a processing system is provided. In some embodiments, the processing system comprises a non-secure processing unit and a cryptographic coprocessing unit. The cryptographic coprocessing unit comprises a data interface and a hardware cryptographic engine. The data interface is configured to receive, from the non-secure processing unit, one or more control blocks and one or more data block. The hardware cryptographic engine is configured to process, as a function of a cryptographic key, the one or more control blocks and the one or more data blocks received by the data interface. The data interface is configured to receive a first control block from the non-secure processing unit, latch the received first control block, receive a first data block from the non-secure processing unit and transfer the latched first control block and the received first data block to the hardware cryptographic engine.
