Abstract

A method and a system for checking whether program instructions have been executed by an end device, wherein, the end device calls for program instructions and the program instructions are stored in executable form in a trustworthy entity, in particular a chip card. Subsequently, the program instructions are variably modified in the trustworthy entity such that the modified program instructions vary upon each execution of the method. Through execution of the instructions in the end device there is obtained a check value which is in turn transferred to the trustworthy entity and verified in the trustworthy entity.
