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.

A first device stores a subscription manager and at least two subscriptions. A first subscription is active and a second subscription is non-active. A second device sends a request for switching to the second subscription. The subscription manager sets a first variable relating to a next active subscription to the second subscription. The subscription manager sends to the first device a message requesting the first device to re-launch an execution of the subscription manager and to read data. The first device sends to the subscription manager a message including a command for re-launching an execution of the subscription manager. The subscription manager de-activates, based upon the first variable value, the first subscription. The subscription manager activates, based upon the first variable value, the second subscription, and sends to the first device operating system data relating to the second subscription, as a current active subscription.

Method for accessing a service and a corresponding device

The invention relates to a UICC comprising a toolkit applet. The UICC comprises a toolkit security component for establishing and using a secure channel for proactive commands and events exchanged by the toolkit applet of the UICC with a mobile equipment. Other communications between the UICC and the mobile equipment take place outside of this secure channel. The invention also relates to a system comprising a UICC of the above type and a mobile equipment, such as a cell phone. The invention also relates to a method to selectively protect a UICC.
