Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product for self-identification of a device. The disclosure utilizes generation of a public/private key pair, within the device itself, and completes at least a portion of an authentication process within the device itself using a securely stored private key that never leaves the device. By not transferring the private key away from the device, potential vulnerabilities of known systems due to transfer of identification information during or after manufacturing is effectively eliminated.
