24. The method of claim 22, wherein said authenticating said first electronic entity being for one member of a group consisting of communicating with said first electronic entity, utilizing said at least one resource by said first electronic entity and for manipulating data or structure of said first electronic entity.

25. The method of claim 22, further comprising:

establishing a communication session with said second electronic entity, and

utilizing said region for communicating with said second electronic entity during said communication session;

thereby enabling said second electronic entity the authenticating of said first electronic entity during said communication session.

26. The method of claim 22, further comprising continuously authenticating said second electronic entity, wherein said authenticating comprising monitoring an operation of said second electronic entity with said one or more resources.

27. The method of claim 22, further comprising:

negotiating with said second electronic entity for determining said at least one resource prior to said partitioning said at least one resource.

28. The method of claim 22, further comprising:

establishing a communication session with said second electronic entity;

continuously negotiating with said second electronic entity for generating a communication protocol for communicating with said second electronic entity during said communication session, and continuously changing said communication protocol, during said session.

29. The method of claim 28, further comprising:

utilizing said communication protocol for charging or changing characteristic of said charging during said charging, thereby providing a secured charging;

wherein said charging being changed during said communication session thereby providing a secure charging.

30. The method of claim 22 farther comprising utilizing said at least one resource for monitoring said second electronic entity, by said monitoring, authenticating said second electronic entity and certifying said second electronic entity, according to one member of a group consisting of:

utilizing said at least one resource for monitoring changes in an operation of said second electronic entity, utilizing said at least one resource for monitoring changes in a behavior of a user of said second electronic entity and utilizing said at least one resource for monitoring changes in an environment of said second electronic entity.

31. The method of claim 22 farther comprising:

establishing a communication session with said second electronic entity;

negotiating with said second electronic entity for determining characteristic of a communication protocol,

utilizing said communication protocol for communicating with said second electronic entity and adapting said communication protocol to characteristic of said session wherein said characteristic being one member of a group consisting of behavior of a user, and environment changes, changes in operation of said first electronic entity and said second electronic entity.

33. The method of claim 22, further comprising receiving a first input from a peripheral;

sending a second input to a non secured module;

wherein said second input being fake input;

by said second electronic entity sending a request for said secure module for reflecting said second input;

analyzing security and authentication aspects of said communication session and providing a result, and reflecting said second input and said first input in accordance with said result.

37. The method of claim 22, wherein said at least one resource being one member of a group consisting of a control resource and a sensor.

32. A method for certifying an electronic entity, the method comprising the steps of:

establishing a communication session with a electronic entity and

certifying, during said communication session, said electronic entity, wherein said certifying being changed during said session according to one member of a group consisting of;

changes in an operation of said first electronic entity, changes in a behavior of a user of said first electronic entity and to changes in an environment of said first electronic entity.

34. In a first electronic entity, said first electronic entity comprising an at least one resource, a method for sharing resources of said first electronic entity by a second electronic entity, the method comprising:

receiving, from said second electronic entity, a request for sharing said at least one resource with said first electronic entity;

partitioning said an at least one resource as a result of said receiving said request, and

providing to said second electronic entity an access permission to said at least one resource, wherein said access permission being for sharing said at least one resource by said second electronic entity.

35. In a first electronic entity, said first electronic entity comprising an at least one resource, a method for authenticating said first electronic entity by a second electronic entity, the method comprising:

receiving, from said second electronic entity, a request for authenticating said first electronic entity;

partitioning said an at least one resource as a result of said receiving said request, and

providing to said second electronic entity an access permission to said at least one resource;

wherein said access permission being for authenticating said at least one resources by said second electronic entity;

thereby enabling said second electronic entity the authenticating of said at least one resource entity by utilizing said at least one resource.

36. An electronic entity, said electronic entity comprising an at least one resource, said electronic entity is operable for receiving, from a second electronic entity, a request for authenticating said electronic entity;

partitioning said an at least one resource as a result of said receiving said request; and

providing to said second electronic entity an access permission to said at least one resource;

wherein said access permission being for said authenticating said first electronic entity by said second electronic entity;

said authenticating being by utilizing said at least one resource;

thereby enabling said second electronic entity the authenticating of said first electronic entity by utilizing said at least one resource.
