Abstract
A data processing system and a method are provided for executing an obfuscated computer program. A function that computes an obfuscated address for each instruction of a plurality of instructions is provided. The function is factored into a first part and a second part. The first part is stored in a memory of the data processing system. The second part and a secret are stored in a secure element of the data processing system, where the secure element is relatively more secure than the memory. An instruction of the plurality of instructions is received in the data processing system. A processor of the data processing system computes an intermediate obfuscated address using the first part. The intermediate obfuscated address is provided to the secure element. An unobfuscated address is computed in the secure element using the intermediate obfuscated address, the second part, and the secret.
