Claim 10:
11. An electronic device, comprising:
a hardware processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by the hardware processor, cause the electronic device to perform steps comprising:
providing, by an electronic device, an interim unique identifier to a mobile device, the interim unique identifier associated with an interim authentication key;
generating a hash value by performing, by the electronic device, a hash function operation on a combination value generated by combining each of the interim unique identifier, the interim authentication key, a first value generated by the mobile device after receiving the interim unique identifier, and a second value generated by the electronic device after receiving the first value;
generating, by the electronic device, a permanent unique identifier and a permanent authentication key for the electronic device based on the generated hash value; and
providing, by the electronic device, the second value to the mobile device, the mobile device configured to provide the first value, the second value, and the interim unique identifier to a tracking server, the tracking server configured to determine the interim authentication key associated with the interim unique identifier and to generate the permanent unique identifier and the permanent authentication key for the electronic device based on the interim unique identifier, the interim authentication key, the first value, and the second value.
