METHOD FOR PROVISIONING PROFILE OF EMBEDDED UNIVERSAL INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CARD USING CAPABILITY INFORMATION AND MOBILE TERMINAL THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed are a method for provisioning a profile to an embedded universal integrated circuit card (UICC) using the capability information of the reliable embedded UICC and a mobile communication terminal therefor. The disclosed method comprises the steps of: allowing an embedded UICC mounted in a mobile terminal to transmit its own capability information to a registration management device; allowing the embedded UICC to form a security channel with the registration management device and perform authentication, according to a response message from the registration management device; allowing the embedded UICC to agree on an encryption key and an MAC key for profile provisioning with the registration management device, based on the capability information, after the step of performing authentication; allowing the embedded UICC to receive a profile and a MAC value, which are encrypted based on the agreed encryption key and MAC key, from the registration management device; and allowing the embedded UICC to verify the MAC value, based on the agreed encryption key and MAC key, decode the encrypted profile, and install the decoded profile therein.
