A method of device authentication includes, at a first device, sending a device activation request to a second device, the device activation request including identity authentication information of the first device and in response to receiving an activation certificate from the second device, storing the activation certificate in a trusted environment associated with the first device. The method further includes sending a certificate signature request to the second device, the certificate signature request generated in the trusted environment based at least in part on the activation certificate and storing a device certificate received from the second device in the trusted environment, the device certificate generated based on the certificate signature request. In this way, a more reliable identity authentication and authentication mechanism is realized on the basis of savin
