ENABLING A SOFTWARE APPLICATION TO BE EXECUTED ON A MOBILE STATION

摘要

The invention enables a software application to be executed on a mobile station in dependence of a SIM. Challenge data originating from the software application is input to the SIM to generate first response data using a security function of the SIM. The software application is enabled to be executed in dependence of the first response data. In addition, the challenge data may be transmitted to a verification server for the generation of second response data in dependence of the challenge data and possibly using an authentication centre. The software application is then enabled to be executed in further dependence of the second response data.
