METHOD OF PAIRING A SECURITY ELEMENT WITH A TELECOMMUNICATIONS TERMINAL AND CORRESPONDING SYSTEM

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The method involves transmitting an identifier of a security element (40) on occurrence of an event (46) from the security element to a telecommunication terminal (41) i.e. mobile telephone. The identifier of the security element and an identifier of a user subscription are associated corresponding to the terminal in which the security element is inserted. A cooperating element (43) is allowed to cooperate with a telecommunication network (42) such that the cooperating element is able to address the security element via the terminal. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a system for pairing a security element with a telecommunication terminal. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Method for pairing a security element e.g. Secure digital (SD) card and micro SD card (all claimed), with a telecommunication terminal i.e. mobile telephone, in a telecommunication network e.g. Third-Generation (3G) network and Internet protocol multimedia subsystem network. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The element is allowed to cooperate with the telecommunication network such that the cooperating element is able to address the security element via the terminal, thus allowing the network to determine various applications carried by the security element, and enabling to administer the applications in a remote manner by performing upgrading, addition, and suppression operations. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of a system for pairing a security element with a telecommunication terminal in a telecommunication network. 40 : Security element 41 : Telecommunication terminal 42 : Telecommunication network 43 : Cooperating element 46 : Event.
