<p>The present invention relates to a method for securing an authentication platform, and to the hardware and software for implementing same. The method comprises a phase of creation of an identity by an identity server, and a phase of use of said identity with an authentication server. According to the invention, said operations are secured by a secure component (typically a secure microcontroller). Software, called User Agent, which is run on the terminal of the Internet user, makes it possible to exchange data between the three entities of: WEB navigator, server, and secure component. An Internet user associated with a navigator is authenticated by a mutual authentication carried out between a secure component (typically a secure microcontroller) and a WEB server.</p> |
