A device dedicated to generating integrity messages relating to at least one satellite navigation system including a set of satellite surveillance stations and to be sent to navigation receivers. The device includes a processor responsible for determining at chosen times the stations that are active (i.e. nominal or degraded) for each system concerned and, after each such determination, for generating an integrity message including at least primary data representative of the active (i.e. nominal or degraded) stations. The processor is also responsible, each time it detects that at least one station has become degraded or inactive between two successive chosen times, for generating an integrity alert message including at least primary data representative of each station that has become degraded or inactive. Thus, each receiver can determine integrity information relating to the navigation messages that it has received from the satellite navigation system to which it is tuned, given the stations of the system that are actually active (i.e. nominal or degraded) and one or more corresponding integrity degradation rules.
