    摘要: Provided are a method and apparatus. A method, performed by a primary terminal, of providing a communication service may include: identifying and accessing, by performing a discovery process, an Internet of Things (IoT) terminal operating as an access point, transmitting, to the IoT terminal, authentication information for performing a second embedded Subscriber Identity Module (eSIM) setup process following a first eSIM setup process while performing the first eSIM setup process on the IoT terminal, disconnecting first connection with the IoT terminal after terminating the first eSIM setup process, performing second connection with the IoT terminal based on the authentication information, in response to an access request from the IoT terminal and performing the second eSIM setup process as a subsequent procedure to the first eSIM setup process.

    摘要: A method for downloading a profile by a terminal and the terminal for performing the same are provided. The method includes acquiring information including an access token for transmitting a profile request to a profile server, transmitting a first message including the access token and a universal integrated circuit card (UICC) information of the terminal to the profile server, receiving a second message including a verification result from the profile server, and receiving a profile package corresponding to the access token from the profile server. The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for internet of things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology.

    摘要: Convergence of a 5th-Generation communication system supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-Generation system(s) with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT) may be applied to intelligent services. Operator specific services are permitted and provided by allowing an unauthorized terminal to search for and access the such services, and includes notifying a terminal of information corresponding to “operator specific services” by allowing a base station to broadcast predetermined information, displaying information acquired by a terminal, matching information acquired by the terminal with information broadcast from a base station to arrange services, requesting access and notifying a terminal performs an access for “operator specific services” upon accessing a network, providing a menu for determining whether neighboring base stations are capable of “operator specific services” to a user of a terminal, and allowing the terminal to determine whether there is the base station broadcasting the information.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method of providing a profile package by a profile server and the profile server includes generating a profile package, dividing the profile package in a unit installable in a UICC of an electronic device, reconfiguring the divided profile information in an encryptable unit, and transmitting the reconfigured profile information to the electronic device. Further, provided is an operating method and apparatus of an electronic device communicating with the profile server.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for installing a profile of an embedded universal integrated circuit boards (eUICC) and, more particularly, to a method and a device for remotely installing mobile communication subscriber information (profile) substituting for a universal integrated circuit boards (UICC), on a security module. In an aspect, a network device, acquires at least one of or more profiles encrypted with a first password key and one or more first password keys encrypted with a second password key; and when profile installation for the eUICC starts, transmits to, at least one eUICC, the one or more encrypted profiles and the one or more encrypted first password keys, wherein, prior to the transmission, each first password key is re-encrypted with a third password key for installation by the corresponding one or more eUICCs.
