Abstract
In one embodiment, a method to provide reliable electronic distribution of information between a first system and a second system remotely located from the first system coupled together by a communication link. The method comprises storing a public key, a private key, and signed key parameters in a semiconductor device associated with the first system. The signed key parameters are output from the semiconductor device to the second system via the communication link. Then, the first system is authenticated by the second system; and the information is transmitted from the second system to the first system, provided the first system is authenticated.
