Methods, systems, apparatus, and computer-readable storage devices for anonymous device authentication. A method includes: accessing, by the electronic device, data stored by the electronic device that identifies authentication keys the electronic device accepts as valid; sending, by the electronic device to a second electronic device, an authentication request that identifies a set of authentication keys including at least some of authentication keys the electronic device accepts as valid; and receiving, by the electronic device, response data that the second electronic device provides in response to the authentication request. The response data (i) identifies a particular authentication key from the set of authentication keys identified by the authentication request, and (ii) includes a signature generated using the particular authentication key. The method includes authenticating, by the electronic device, the second electronic device by determining that the received signature was generated using the particular authentication key.
