Jan 28, 2013 at 20:41 comment added fgrieu @Mok-KongShen: The features described in your quotes (also in the very similar Security Target that I link to) are countermeasures against side channel leakage. Yes, computing on encrypted plaintext matches one characteristic of homomorphic computation. However, here, the device performing the computation can reconstruct the plaintext from what it manipulates, which goes against the goal of what's usually considered to be homomorphic computation.

Some polish; supply two links to the all-important Security Target.
Jan 28, 2013 at 10:39 comment added Mok-Kong Shen You have provided admirably plenty valuable informations. In a particular product: bsi.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/BSI/Zertifizierung/… there are stated: "The TOE provides full on-chip encryption covering the complete core, busses, memories and cryptographic co-processors leaving no plaintext on the chip." "No data in plain are handled anywhere on the TOE and thus also the two CPUs compute entirely masked and in addition dynamic mask changes are applied." Wouldn't that mean that homomorphic computations are being done there?
