Abstract: A data processing method and apparatus are proposed for used in the encryption,
decryption and authentication of messages. A memory for storing input
information, a set of operations and a processor for executing the operations on
the stored input information are provided. The input information is utilised to
select the order and number of operations performed. The operations are devised
such that any possible input string will be interpreted as a valid program and the
memory is extensible. Furthermore, data is output as a function of the input
information. As a result the state of the memory generated during execution is
indeterminate prior to execution and the process evolves differently for each
possible input string. Accordingly, the process performed by the module cannot
be described by an algorithm. The method and apparatus according to the
invention have a number of different applications particularly in the field of
cryptography including a random number generator, a one way hash function
generator or as a key generator for a cipher primitive in encryption and
decryption.
