A method for controlling locking state transitions in a terminal in accordance with one or more state transition rules, the method including the steps of providing at least one writable memory location comprising first state information associated with a first locking state of said terminal, said at least one writable memory being configured for an irreversible transition from said first locking state to a second locking state; receiving a request for a transition to said second locking state, said request comprising second state information associated with said second locking state; on the basis of said first and second state information and said state transition rules, checking whether said requested transition is allowable or not; and storing said second state information in said writable memory if said requested transition is allowable according to said state transition rules. |
