A method of providing for reliably identifying a Security Profile of a device that generates digital signatures includes (a) for each of a plurality of devices manufactured in a secure environment, recording together the public key with a Security Profile of the manufactured device and generating a digital signature therefor to collectively define a Security Certificate, the public key and Security Profile thereby being securely linked together, and (b) before each manufactured device is released from the secure environment, incorporating its respective Security Certificate into the manufactured device such that the Security Certificate is sent with a digital signature that is generated by the manufactured device using the private key.
