Abstract

An originator device allows for a unique passphrase to be communicated to a service system. The originator device has a fixed token in which a unique platform identifier is recorded and a processor to generate a representation of the platform configuration. This representation is communicated to the registry service as a unique, platform-specific passphrase associated with the originator.
