Claim:
A method of establishing protected electronic communication between various electronic devices, especially between electronic devices of electronic service providers and electronic devices of users of electronic service and/or between local electronic devices and electronic devices of users of electronic service, wherein users of electronic service are beforehand equipped with a personal electronic identity gadget bearing no information about the user identity, and only at the first connection of the personal electronic identity gadget to the electronic devices of an arbitrary electronic service provider, and/or to the local electronic devices, the personal electronic identity gadget and the electronic devices of the electronic service provider, and/or the local electronic devices mutually generate a verifiable electronic identity, which is stored in the personal electronic identity gadget and in the electronic devices of the electronic service provider, and/or in the local electronic devices, for the needs of further mutual electronic communication, separately from other identities and without the knowledge of personal data about the user of electronic service, whereas consequently only the generated and stored information is utilized for verification of the identity at every subsequent connection of the user of electronic service to the electronic devices of the given electronic service provider and/or to the local electronic devices, and wherein the generation of verifiable electronic identity and identity verification is done symmetrically in such a manner, that by a combination of one part of the identifier generated by the personal electronic identity gadget and the second part of the identifier generated by electronic devices of the electronic service providers or local electronic devices, an identifier is created, which cannot be created and/or verified by either party alone, without the cooperation of the opposite party, whereas the personal electronic identity gadget verifies the identity on the side of the user of electronic service with the use of secret information connected with the identity, handed over by electronic devices of the electronic service providers or local electronic devices, and vice versa, the electronic devices of the electronic service providers or local electronic devices verify the identity on the side of the electronic service provider or at the side of the local electronic device with the use of secret information connected with the identity, handed over by the personal electronic identity gadget, and only after successful verification of the identifiers of both parties, the identity is considered as verified.
