Provided are a method and electronic device for storing a digital key. The electronic device includes: a communicator; a secure element configured to store a digital key and perform authentication related to the digital key; a memory storing a program and data for storing the digital key; and a processor configured to execute the program stored in the memory to perform authentication on a target device and a user of the electronic device by performing short range communication with the target device, generate the digital key for the target device, and store the generated digital key in one region of the secure element.

Method for storing digital key and electronic device

Provided is a method of sharing a digital key between devices, and a method, performed by an owner device, of transmitting a digital key to a target device, includes: transmitting digital key configuration data; receiving a digital key attestation including a public key of the target device, the digital key configuration data, and a signature of the target device; generating a digital key sharing attestation including the public key of the target device, the digital key configuration data, the signature of the target device, and a signature of the owner device; and transmitting the digital key sharing attestation.

Method by which device shares digital key

Provided is a method and apparatus for registering a shared key. A method of registering, by a second electronic device, a shared digital key in a target device includes receiving a digital key sharing attestation and a key tracking server (KTS) signature corresponding to the digital key sharing attestation, receiving an authentication request from the target device, and transmitting an authentication response including the digital key sharing attestation and the KTS signature to the target device in response to the authentication request.

Method and apparatus for registering shared key

The present disclosure relates to an immobilizer token management system, and an embodiment may include generating immobilizer token indices, generating a digital key according to a request for the issuance of a digital key received from a digital key sharing device, mapping the digital key to one of the immobilizer token indices, and transmitting, to the digital key sharing device, the digital key and the immobilizer token index mapped to the digital key.

Immobilizer token management system

The disclosure relates to an electronic device for processing a digital key and an operation method thereof. The electronic device for processing a digital key may include a communicator configured to receive a request from a digital key framework, verify a package, a signature information of the package, and a certificate information of the target device based on a first authentication information received from the digital key framework and a second authentication information stored in the secure element, and generate the digital key by using configuration information included in the package.

Electronic device for processing digital key, and operation method therefor

A secure element (SE) for processing a digital key includes a communication interface for communicating with a host, a memory for storing programs and data for processing the digital key, and a processor for executing the programs stored in the memory to receive a digital key processing request from a target device, determine whether a service is providable to the target device, by using a service-provider-specific service performance manager, process the digital key by using a digital key manager based on digital key processing information stored in the memory, upon determining that a service is providable to the target device, issue a digital key processing certificate by using the service-provider-specific service performance manager based on authentication information stored in the memory, and transmit the digital key processing certificate to at least one of a service provider and the target device.

Secure element for processing and authenticating digital key and operation method therefor

Disclosed are an electronic device and a method of performing digital key provisioning of an electronic device. The electronic device according to an embodiment includes a communication unit, a memory that stores programs and data for performing digital key provisioning, and a processor configured to, by executing the programs stored in the memory, perform device authentication on a target device by performing short-range communication with the target device, identify a digital key service access right of the target device through a server by obtaining user information, and control generation and storing of a digital key in response to a digital key generation request from the target device.
