A Method and a system for managing undesired service requests sent from at least one terminal to a network are described, wherein the network comprises a network node for storing trusted service-information. The method comprises the steps of: the network receiving a service request from a terminal, the request comprising service request information; and, sending, preferably via a secure communication channel, a user verification request for requesting the user to verify the service requested by the terminal if at least part of the service request information is not listed in the trusted service-information.

Managing undesired service requests in a network

A system is described for controlling a mobile telecommunications device, in which the mobile device includes an enforcer which can be controlled by the telecommunications network. The telecommunications network signals the enforcer in order to gain control of the mobile device. The enforcer may be a hardware component within the mobile telecommunications device and in particular is coupled between the baseband and applications processors. The system allows a telecommunications network to gain control of a device in the event that the device is corrupted by rogue or malicious software and behaves in a way deleterious to the network.
