Claim 12:
13. An anti-cloning system, comprising:
a server configured to verify one or more unique identity values;
a device configured for a connection to an embedded device having a unique identity value; and
a controller coupled to the device, the controller having:
a controller memory configured to store a public verification key, and
a controller processor coupled to the controller memory and configured to:
verify the unique identity value using the public verification key,
add the unique identity value to an operating list of embedded device identity values based on a number of unique identity values included in the operating list being less than a threshold number, the operating list being associated with one or more respective embedded devices that are temporarily allowed to be used with the device for a threshold amount of time when the device is unable to connect with the server to verify the one or more unique identity values, and
enable the device to use the embedded device based on:
the unique identity value being verified, and
the unique identity value being added to the operating list.
