Abstract
The invention relates to a method for controlling a transaction carried out between an electronic device comprising a secure memory and an external terminal by monitoring usage patterns of the electronic device, wherein a first and a second item of usage information are read when the transaction is carried out; a first list of data pairs is recorded on the secure memory, each of said pairs comprising the first and second (IU2) items of usage information; a second list of counters is recorded on the secure memory; an indicator for monitoring usage patterns of the electronic device is calculated on the basis of the first item of usage information, the second item of usage information, and/or a counter from the second list.
