1. A method, comprising: mapping polynomial representations in an Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) finite field of bytes of a state matrix into respective fields of polynomials computed with respect to one of a plurality of irreducible polynomials, generating moved polynomials; applying Chinese-Remainder-Theorem (CRT) based mapping to the generated moved polynomials, generating a polynomial representing the state matrix in a polynomial ring; applying an AES process to the polynomial representing the state matrix in the polynomial ring, generating an AES-processed polynomial; and converting the AES-processed polynomial into the AES finite field, generating an AES-processed state matrix.
