According to embodiments of the present disclosure, systems and methods for validating the authenticity of devices used in information handling systems (IHSs) are provided. According to one embodiment, an IHS includes a replacement/repaired device to be configured in a computing system, and computer-executable instructions to receive a to-be-replaced public key of a to-be-replaced/repaired device configured in the computing system, sign, using a replacement/repaired device private key of the replacement/repaired device, attestation data of the replacement/repaired device, and sign, using a vendor private key of a vendor of the replacement/repaired device, the signed attestation data and a replacement/repaired device public key of the replacement/repaired device. The instructions then encrypt, using the received to-be-replaced public key, the signed attestation data and the replacement/repaired device public key, and sign, using a vendor private key, the encrypted data to save into a new voucher that pairs the to-be-replaced/repaired device with the replacement/repaired device.
