Abstract: A method of verifying the integrity of a software application that can be executed on a host terminal includes (i) determining at least one series of control instructions forming an executable certificate for the software application, which can be executed by the host terminal during execution of the software application to be verified; (ii) on the host terminal, executing the software application to be verified, receiving the executable certificate determined during step (i) and executing the series of control instructions for the certificate which can be executed in the memory context of the host terminal; (iii) comparing the result thus obtained through execution of the control instructions with the result expected from an authentic software application; and (iv) in the event of a positive comparison, continuing with the execution of the software application to be verified.

Abstract: A distribution process with access control of scrambled data to at least one receiver terminal. The process includes an encryption phase that subdivides the data into an integer of families each including an integer of blocks, assigns each family a specific identification parameter associated with at least one descrambling module having a specific processing capacity and a level of security, and scrambles each block of a family of a type by a key in biunivocal relation with the parameter. A descrambling phase identifies the family of each block and descrambles each block of a family of the type by the descrambling module by the key.
