    Abstract: An integrated circuit is described. The integrated circuit comprises a one-time programmable non-volatile memory and a memory controller for the one-time programmable non-volatile memory. The memory controller is configured to send a first random number which has been generated in the integrated circuit to a device initialization server. The memory controller is configured, in response to receiving a signed device initialization message from the device initialization server, the signed device initialization message comprising a device initialization message and a corresponding signature, and the device initialization message comprising a second random number and a device identity, to determine whether the first and second random numbers are equal and whether the signature is valid.
