The invention is a method for managing a tamper-proof device comprising first and second software containers, said tamper-proof device being included in a host device comprising a baseband unit. Said first software container is designed to emulate an eUICC and is in a deactivated state. The second software container comprises a set of rules. The baseband unit comprises an activator agent which retrieves both location data broadcasted by a telecom network and the set of rules from the second software container. The activator agent checks if activation of the first software container is authorized by one of said rules for the location data and requests activation of the first software container only in case of successful checking.

Method of managing a tamper-proof device comprising a plurality of software containers

The invention is a method for managing a tamper-proof device comprising a processor and an operating system able to handle a set of communication protocols with external entities. The operating system accesses a ruling data specifying for each communication protocol of the set whether Card Lock, Card Terminate and Final Application privileges as defined by GlobalPlatform Card Specification (V2.3) are authorized or forbidden. Upon receipt of a command from one of said external entities, the operating system uses the ruling data to deny or to authorize execution of the command based on the communication protocol used to convey the command.

Method of managing privileges in a tamper-proof device comprising several software containers

The invention is a method for managing a tamper-proof device comprising a plurality of software containers and an operating system. The operating system is able to handle a set of communication protocols with external entities. The operating system accesses a pairing data in which each communication protocol of said set has been associated with a single software container and upon receipt of a message from one of the external entities, the operating system uses the pairing data to route the message to the software container associated with the communication protocol used to convey the message.

Method of managing a tamper-proof device comprising several software containers

A method for managing a secure element embedded in an equipment comprising an NFC controller. The secure element comprises a security indicator. The method comprises the steps of: on receipt of a triggering command sent by the NFC controller, the secure element switches in a test context; on receipt of a restore command sent by an application, the secure element sets the security indicator, such as a counter of unusual events, to a predefined value only if the secure element is in test context; and on receipt of an ending command sent by the NFC controller, the secure element switches in a Live context. The secure element keeps a track of the switch in the test context and denies any further triggering commands. The method enables reset of security indicator after manufacturing and test where the security indicator may have been affected.

Method of managing a secure element

The invention is a method for managing applications in a secure element comprising a communication interface. An application is installed in the secure element and configured to be implicitly selected on the communication interface. The method comprises the following steps: &#x2014;the secure element receives a command requesting the installation of a new application configured to be implicitly selected on the communication interface, &#x2014;upon receipt of the command, the secure element installs the new application, configures the new application to be implicitly selected on the communication interface and keeps the previous application unchanged.

Method for managing applications in a secure element

The present invention relates to a method to protect, in a secured container using an encryption key, a set of mixed sensitive and public data to be transferred to an entity. The method includes the steps of: generating a random key, ciphering the set of mixed sensitive and public data using said random key to obtain a ciphered set of data, generating an initialization value, and defining configuration information for the secured container. The initialization value, the configuration information and random key form a preamble. The preamble and the ciphered set of data are encrypted. The initialization value renders the resulting encrypted data variable from a secured container to another even in case of repetitive configuration information in the preamble.
