Abstract: A secure method for generating digital documents that are certified by a known authority, comprising the steps of: A. Programming an electronic device with a document issuing method that originates with the known authority; B. programming the electronic device with data identifying the owner of the device; C. reading a digital document into the device; D. physical identification of the owner of the device, based on the identifying data as programmed in step (B); E. if the result of the identification process in step (D) is positive, then issuing of a digital document signed by the known authority. A device for generating digital documents that are certified by a known authority, comprising a computer for implementing a program written in the memory, and wherein the memory includes a document issuing method that originates with the known authority; input means for reading information related to physical user identification; and output means.

Abstract: A method for adding a communication device in a secure communication system comprising the steps of: A. a user accesses a database in a secure way as provided in that database and according to the authorization given to the user there, wherein the connection is achieved with a user's communication device which is used at present with the database, having already being recognized in the database as a legitimate user; B. the user is recognized in the database and is given access to facilities in that database, wherein one of the available facilities performs the service of changing the communication device or adding additional devices to the listed device(s); C. the user asks for the service of changing the communication device, to add a new device to the list of legitimate users in the database; D. the database responds by sending temporary identification means for that user for the purpose of adding a new device; E.
