Publication number: 20170171738Abstract: The invention is a method for managing communication between a secure element and a device. The secure element comprises a physical communication interface and first and second virtual profiles. It is configured to exchange data targeting the virtual profiles with the device through the physical communication interface. The method comprises the steps of: running simultaneously said first and second virtual profiles, demultiplex incoming data received through the physical communication interface and multiplex outgoing data sent through the physical communication interface, resetting one of said virtual profiles individually without affecting the other virtual profiles in response to receiving a specific signal sent by the device through the physical communication interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2015Publication date: June 15, 2017Applicant: GEMALTO SAInventors: Frédéric FAURE, Xavier BERARD

Publication number: 20160234013Abstract: The invention is a method of communicating between a server and a distant secure element through a point-to-point link. The server is provided with a set comprising a plurality of data and a plurality of identifiers, each of the data is associated with one of the identifiers. The plurality of data comprises a first data compatible with the distant secure element and a second data incompatible with the distant secure element. The whole set is sent from the server to the distant secure element through the point-to-point link. A control operation is run with respect to a reference value stored in the distant secure element for each identifier. The data associated with the identifiers for which the control operation failed is discarded.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 9, 2014Publication date: August 11, 2016Applicant: GEMALTO SAInventors: Abdellah EL-MAROUANI, André SINTZOFF, Julien GLOUSIEAU, Ilyas LANDIKOV, Christophe RONFARD-HARET, Xavier BERARD

Patent number: 9294919Abstract: A method for exporting on a UICC in a terminal. An export request signed by the UICC, is transmitted by the terminal to a secure server. The server verifies the signed export request by comparing the signature and the identity of the UICC. The server sends a signed export certificate to the UICC via the terminal. An export package containing the data is prepared, signed and encrypted by the UICC, and sent to the terminal. The terminal transmits the export package to the server. The server signs an acknowledgment message and transmits it to the UICC via the terminal. In the UICC, the data that have been exported is destroyed, and a signed acknowledge message is sent to the server via the terminal. The server makes the data available for a further transfer to a new terminal or UICC.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2011Date of Patent: March 22, 2016Assignee: GEMALTO SAInventors: Lionel Merrien, Xavier Berard

Patent number: 8825780Abstract: The invention is a method of managing an application embedded in a secured electronic token. The token is intended to receive a message from a server machine. The message has a header and a body. The token comprises an agent able to manage the message. The method comprises the steps of: a) registering the application in the agent by associating a reference of the application with a value of an element of the message header, b) when the message is received from the server machine, forwarding part of the message to the application if the message header contains an element having the value associated to the reference of the application.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2010Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: Gemalto SAInventors: Patrice Amiel, Xavier Berard, Frédéric Gallas

Publication number: 20140141747Abstract: A method for transmitting a SIM application of a first terminal to a second terminal, the SIM application being stored in a secure element included in the first terminal, with access to the SIM application being locked by a PIN code. The method includes exporting the SIM application from the first terminal to a distant site, by including the PIN code as well as a remote loading code. A user of the second terminal is asked to enter the remote loading code in the second terminal. In the event the remote loading code entered by the user matches the remote loading code that has been exported, the installation of the SIM application in a secure element of the second terminal is authorized. Otherwise, the SIM application is not installed in the secure element of the second terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2011Publication date: May 22, 2014Applicant: Gemalto SAInventors: Lionel Merrien, Xavier Berard, Denis Gachon
