Abstract:
The invention enables the shared secret, which is used for encrypting the communication of CWs from a smartcard to a receiver, to cover at least a part of a binary image of firmware that is executing in the receiver. Preferably the shared secret covers the entire binary image of the firmware. Hereto, data from one or more predefined firmware memory locations are read, the set of data forming the shared secret.
