METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MIGRATING A SPECIFICALLY ENCRYPTED ACCESS OBJECT FROM A FIRST TERMINAL UNIT TO A SECOND TERMINAL UNIT

摘要

The present invention provides a method, a migration server and a terminal device mor migrating specifically encrypted access objects (such as e.g. a license) between mobile terminals such as e.g. computers and/or cellular telephones. Method for migrating a specifically encrypted access object from a first terminal unit to a second terminal unit is performed according to the invention, by a migration server of a communication network. The method comprises receiving via said communication network, a first specifically encrypted access object of said first terminal unit and identification data related to said first terminal unit and to a content said first specifically encrypted access object is destined for (e.g. an application). Then identification data related to said second terminal unit and a request for issuing a second specifically encrypted access object for said second terminal unit are received at the server via a communication network. The server performs a check if said request is authorized and generates a second specifically encrypted access object for said second terminal unit, being destined for said content, if said request is authorized. The generated second specifically encrypted access object destined to said second terminal unit is then sending via said communication network, to said second terminal.
