System and method for representing a secure time in a device based upon an insecure clock

摘要

A system and method for providing modified rights information to an application on an electronic device. A centralized component monitors both a system clock and a secure clock. The centralized component calculates the difference between the time of the system clock and the time of the secure clock and thereafter modifies the access rights information for the application by the difference between the times. The modified access rights information is then presented to the application for use.
