Abstract
A method for checking the identity of a reference individual, the method comprising the following steps, implemented by a checking device: selecting terminals respectively associated with individuals forming part of a set of individuals whose identities are intended to be checked by the checking device, the individual forming part of the set of individuals; sending, to each of the selected terminals, an input datum associated with the reference individual and a request asking the terminal to implement a first cryptographic processing operation producing an output datum from the input datum and from a private key specific to the individual associated with the terminal; receiving each output datum; and implementing a second cryptographic processing operation producing a check result relating to the reference individual from each output datum.
