ABSTRACT:
A method of producing a hardware agent being a single integrated circuit encapsulated within a semiconductor device package. The method comprises the steps of generating a device-specific key pair internally within the hardware agent, and verifying that the key pair is unique. After production, secure communications are established through transmission of at least one digital certificate, followed by a successful challenge and response communication exchange.
