Abstract
A mobile terminal for use in a mobile communications system includes a SIM card storing subscriber related data. For security, the SIM card performs secret cryptographic calculations with secret numbers. Secret information is hidden from outside observation by scheduling the calculations using a precomputed, fixed randomization schedule in such a way that externally observable parameters of the device cannot be associated to particular pieces, bits, symbols or values of the secret information.
