Abstract
A method for the initial operation and personalization of a subscriber identity module in a mobile radio network, prior to its first initial operation in the mobile radio network, the subscriber identity module does not yet include an individual secret key and is being equipped with an individual, unique parameter data set only after its first initial operation in the mobile radio network. A mobile radio server takes on, from the subscriber identity module, an authentication message formed with a preliminary parameter data set comprising an individual, unique subscriber identification and a non-individual, non-unique preliminary secret key, and sends, after a verification, in response thereto an individual, unique final secret key to the subscriber identity module for programming into the subscriber identity module. The preliminary parameter data set is introduced into the subscriber identity module selectively during production or by an initializing step based on an initial parameter data set.
