In a method for producing an encrypted method payload data stream
comprising a header and a block containing encrypted payload data, a
payload data key for a payload data encryption algorithm for encrypting
payload data is generated. The payload data is encrypted using the
generated payload data key and the payload data encryption algorithm to
obtain the block containing the encrypted payload data of the payload
stream. A part of the payload data stream is processed to deduce
information marking the part of the payload data stream. The information
is linked with the payload data by means of an invertible logic linkage
to obtain a basic value. This basic value is finally encrypted using a
key of two keys being different from each other by an asymmetrical
encryption method, the two different keys being the public and the
private keys respectively for the asymmetrical encryption method to
obtain an output value being an encrypted version of the payload data
key. The output value is finally entered into the header to complete the
payload stream. Changes of the header and of the payload data itself,
which are not authorized, lead to an automatic destruction of the payload
data.
