SYSTEM AND METHOD OF AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF SOFTWARE CODE IN A DEVICE BASED ON ENTITLEMENTS GRANTED TO A CARRIER

摘要

Embodiments include systems and methods for authorizing software code to be executed or access capabilities in secure operating environments based on at least one carrier profile. Carrier profiles may be issued by trusted entities to extend trust to other entities to allow those other entities to provide or control execution of applications in a secure operating environment such as on particular computing devices. The carrier profiles allow entities to add software code to a device without reauthorizing each distribution by the trusted authority, or to limited groups of devices controlled or authorized by the other entities.
