摘要:
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: —the secure element receives a command requesting the installation of a new application configured to be implicitly selected on the communication interface, —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.

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.
摘要:
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.
