  • Abstract
    At the RSA cryptosystem implementation stage, a major security concern is resistance against so-called side-channel attacks. Solutions are known but they increase the overall complexity by a non-negligible factor (typically, a protected RSA exponentiation is 133% slower). For the first time, protected solutions are proposed that do not penalise the running time of an exponentiation
