A method for securing operations is described. In this method a user requests that a service provider device perform an operation, the service provider device transmitting to a certification device a request to validate the requested operation while indicating a key associated with the user. The certification device identifies the user associated with the key and transmits a dynamic code request to the user. A device that generates dynamic codes assigned to the user generates a first version of the dynamic code and transmits it to the certification device, which compares it with a second version of the code in order to decide whether it would or would not be appropriate to inform the service provider device that the requested operation has been validated.
