A method for activating a function of a chipset comprising at least a memory and a calculation module in charge of cryptographic operations, the memory containing at least a seed and the calculation module containing at least one cryptographic algorithm, the method comprising the steps of: receiving at least one of a segmentation key, a global key and a global cryptographic algorithm selector; transmitting at least two items selected from the group consisting of the seed, the received segmentation key, the global key and the global cryptographic algorithm selector, to the calculation module, each of the items being provided by different entities; generating in the calculation module, a temporary key by using one of said at least one cryptographic algorithm of the calculation module and at least the two items; and verifying an authenticity of a received activation message using the temporary key and controlling activation based on the verification. |
