A METHOD FOR SECURING AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE, A SECURITY SYSTEM AND AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for securing the trustworthiness of an electronic device (1). At least first (DID, S1, PK1) and second (S2, PK2) check-up data are stored in the electronic device (1). In the method, a boot program is started (501), in which boot program at least first (P1) and second (P2) boot steps are taken. In the first boot step, the trustworthiness of said at least first check-up data (DID, S1, PK1) is examined, wherein if the check-up shows that said at least first check-up data (DID, S1, PK1) is trusted, said second check-up data (S2, PK2) related to at least the second boot step is examined to confirm the trustworthiness of the second boot step. If the check-up shows that at least one second check-up data (S2, PK2) related to the second boot step is trusted, said second boot step (P2) is taken after said first boot step (P1).
