The present invention relates to the field of the connection to a secure remote service from a terminal and notably of the establishment of a connection between the secure remote service and a security device connected to the terminal. A security device including a security element is connected to the terminal via a physical or virtual local network. When trying to access a secure remote service, a software module is automatically downloaded onto the terminal, without requiring particular rights, from the secure remote service for the discovery and the interaction with the security device. In this way, it is not necessary to install drivers or other specific software in order to enable the use of the secure element when trying to access a secure remote service.
