Zusammenfassung:A public key architecture (160) includes a dual certificate hierarchy which facilitates two independent authentication functions. One of the authentication functions authenticates an authentication device (164) to a verification device (166). The other authentication function authenticates a configuration device (162) to the authentication device (164). In some embodiments, the authentication process uses a lightweight certificate formed in conjunction with a lightweight signature scheme (370).
