Abstract
A computer-implemented method for securing a user device is disclosed. A signed device authentication key is requested and received from a user application executing on the user device. The signed device authentication key is obtained via a software module installed on the user device and associated with a secure data processing provider. A device setup request is transmitted from the user device to the secure data processing system using the signed device authentication key. The device setup request comprises the signed device authentication key. The authenticity of the device setup request is verified at the secure data processing system based on the signed device authentication key.
