Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de génération de preuves d'expédition (22, 24, 25, 26, 27) qui permet de protéger contre les tentatives de fraude les fonds, l'application de ces fonds et la reconstitution de ces fonds. Le système (22, 24, 25, 26, 27) peut se présenter comme un système clos (CS) dans lequel les moyens d'impression de preuves d'expédition (22) sont logés dans les moyens de calcul du système (24, 26) ou à l'intérieur d'un périmètre sécurisé par cryptographie. En outre, le système (22, 24, 25, 26, 27) peut être un système ouvert (OS) dans lequel les moyens d'impression de preuves d'expédition se trouvent à l'extérieur des moyens de calcul du système (24, 26).
