Abstract: Methods for authenticating and integrating user equipment into an information system, corresponding devices and computer programs. Integration of new user equipment into an operator's information system uses communication protocols providing the authentication of the user equipment and guaranteeing integrity and confidentiality of messages exchanged between the user equipment and a user equipment management server of the information system. The user equipment is provided, at the time of manufacture, with an authentication certificate supplied to the manufacturer by the operator managing the information system in which the equipment is to be integrated. This requires cumbersome and inflexible logistics to implement and limits the choice of users as to which user equipment they might wish to integrate. The proposed solution relies on an ecosystem of already authenticated user equipment present in the local network in order to authenticate the user equipment and thus authorize its integration into the information system.
