FIELD: physics, computer engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to secret data transmission. A method of transmitting a data frame and an additional data item from a security processor to an external device comprises steps of: in response to receiving a request, the security processor calculating an additional data item, wherein the additional data item is a response to the request, selected from at least two possible alternatives of the response to the request; the security processor calculating delay time based on the calculated additional data item; delaying (98) the beginning of transmission of the data frame from the security processor to the external device by the calculated delay time for transmitting the additional data item.
EFFECT: facilitating secret transmission of data between a security processor and an external device.
