Provisioning User Attributes for use with Mobile Computing Device

摘要

A mobile computing device hosts an operating system and mobile applications. A provisioning application communicates with a secure element and near field communication (NFC) subsystem. It causes display of an interface for users to enter personal attributes for storage in the secure element. Users discriminately select items from their personal attributes for transmission to a third party recipient so only attributes relative to the third party are sent. Software, interfaces, methods, and apparatus typify the embodiments.

主权项

1. A mobile computing device, comprising:
a housing; one or more controllers in the housing to host an operating system and one or more mobile applications; a data transport protocol subsystem in the housing to communicate with a communications terminal external to the housing of the mobile computing device; and a secure element, wherein said one or more mobile applications includes a provisioning application configured to receive personal attributes of a user for storage in the secure element and enable the user to select items from said personal attributes so that the provisioning application bundles together only said select items of the personal attributes for communication by the data transport protocol subsystem to the communications terminal so third party recipients of the select items of personal attributes receive information pertinent to the third party recipients.
