A method is provided for controlling secure transactions using a physical device held by a user and bearing at least one pair of asymmetric keys, including a device public key and a corresponding device private key. The method includes, prior to implementing the physical device, certifying the device public key with a first certification key of a particular certifying authority, delivering a device certificate after verifying that the device private key is housed in a tamper-proof zone of the physical device; verifying the device certificate by a second certification key corresponding to the first certification key; and in case of a positive verification, registering the user with a provider delivering a provider certificate corresponding to the signature by the provider of the device public key and an identifier of the user.
