METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSFERRING INFORMATION TO A DEVICE

摘要

A system and method for transferring information include generating a public/private key pair for programming equipment and sending the programming equipment public key to a certificate authority. A programming equipment certificate is generated using the programming equipment public key and a private key of the certificate authority. The programming equipment certificate and a certificate authority certificate are sent to the programming equipment. Information is transferred to or from the programming equipment in response to an authentication using the programming equipment certificate and the certificate authority certificate.
