MOBILE CREDENTIAL REVOCATION

摘要

Managing validity status of at least one associated credential includes providing a credential manager that selectively validates associated credentials for at least one device, the device invalidating a corresponding associated credential, and the device requesting that the credential manager validate the corresponding associated credential after invalidating the associated credential. The associated credential may be invalidated based on an external event, such as a user invalidating the associated credential from a UI of the device, a user improperly entering a pin value, a user indicating that a corresponding device is lost, the device entering sleep mode, the device locking a user interface thereof, the device shutting down, and a particular time of day. The at least one associated credential may be provided on an integrated circuit card (ICC) that may be part of a mobile phone and/or a smart card.
