An office electronic apparatus is associated to an apparatus card and is able to use or provide a service by means of identification information; the identification information allows billing of the use or provision of the service. A mobile telephone terminal is associated to a subscriber card storing subscriber identification information. According to the method of the present invention, at least the subscriber identification information and preferably also subscriber authentication information are transferred from the mobile telephone terminal to an office electronic apparatus when the said mobile telephone terminal is in proximity of the office electronic apparatus, the transferred information is stored into the apparatus card of the office electronic apparatus, and the service is autonomously used or provided by the office electronic apparatus by means of the transferred information.

A user system includes terminal equipment configured to receive and send data through a communication network; a terminal security support system removably insertable in, and configured to cooperate with, the terminal equipment; and a trusted user platform for the terminal equipment. The trusted user platform includes an information protection system configured to implement security functionalities, configuration instances for the information protection system, and a trusted communication agent configured to provide a safe communication between the terminal security support system and a remote management centre through the terminal equipment to allow the information protection system to be remotely configured from the remote management centre. The terminal security support system includes an integrated circuit card and/or a memory card which wholly supports the trusted user platform, and the terminal equipment is configured to send data to be subjected to security control to, and to receive security-controlled data from, the trusted user platform.

System and method for remote security management of a user terminal via a trusted user platform

The system allows a reliable and automatic detection of moving vehicles and advantageously also identification of the moving vehicles. A WPAN node device (advantageously a ZigBee node device) is installed on a vehicle to be detected when the vehicle is moving. Three WPAN node devices (advantageously three ZigBee node devices) are installed on the ground. One of the three WPAN node devices has a wide radio coverage area and acts as an 'exciter' of the vehicle WPAN node device. Another one of the three WPAN node devices has a wide radio coverage area and acts as the 'parent' of the vehicle WPAN node device. A further one of the three WPAN node devices has a narrow radio coverage area and acts as a &#x201c;detector&#x201d; of the vehicle WPAN node device. The three radio coverage areas are sized and located so that a moving vehicle to be detected enters the area of the &#x201c;exciter&#x201d; before entering the area of the &#x201c;parent&#x201d; and before entering the area of the &#x201c;detector&#x201d;. After detection, the system provides for sending information to a fourth WPAN node device present in a user mobile telephone terminal.

Method and system for detecting a moving vehicle within a predetermined area

A method of secure management of data records stored in an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag includes data fields whose contents are provided by different parties. Some of the data-fields contain public information data accessible to authorized end users. The data records are stored in encrypted form by encrypting data provided by different parties with different keys so as to set different access rights for contents providers and end users. The end users are supplied only with the keys allowing access to information data fields, whereas proprietary data are accessible only to the data owners. The keys are provided to the users in encrypted form.
