See full text

The invention relates to a device for securing access to a piece of equipment (EQP), comprising an authentication medium (CRD) which uses a reference datum and control means (CTRL) which can be used to verify the consistency between the reference datum and a biometric signature (SGN) obtained from a party requesting access. According to the invention, the reference datum comprises an encrypted version (CRYPT_SGN02) of an authentic biometric signature (SGN02) attributed to the party requesting access, and the aforementioned data consistency is verified by comprising (COMPAR) the biometric signature (SGN) obtained from a party requesting access to an authentic biometric signature (SGN02) resulting from decryption of the encrypted version (CRYPT SGN02) of said signature using a secret key (K).
