Abstract
A method of generating a segment key KSmt from a given basic key KmT and a given modification key K'in a key space with M*T keys. The basic key KMT is split into two parts LmT, RmT onto which a one-way function is applied M−m and T−t times, respectively, and the results are combined again to form a target basic key. A one-way function is applied to the modification key K′MT a number of times that corresponds to a distance value z between the given basic key and the segment key; in one preferred embodiment z=(M−m)+(T−t). This result is XOR-ed with the target basic key to obtain the segment key KSAlso provided is a device.
