Abstract: A method for setting up a subscriber identity module for agreeing one or several exchange keys, between a subscriber identity module and a provisioning server includes generating one or several exchange keys from keys of the provisioning server and of the subscriber identity module on a production server and are transmitted into the subscriber identity module and stored, so that the subscriber identity module is put particularly into a state as though it had generated the exchange keys itself. In a method for agreeing one or several exchange keys, between a subscriber identity module and a provisioning server, the subscriber identity module sends its public key to the provisioning server, which subsequently generates the exchange keys.

Abstract: A method for the transition is provided from a Boolean masking of a value to be kept secret to an additive masking of the value to be kept secret. The value to be kept secret is present in the Boolean masking as a representation masked with a first Boolean mask and a second Boolean mask. A first additive mask and a second additive mask are determined for the value to be kept secret. A first masking transition is executed in which the first Boolean mask is converted into the first additive mask. A second masking transition is executed in which the obfuscation value is converted into an additive correction value, and a third masking transition is executed in which the second Boolean mask is converted into the second additive mask.

Abstract: A flat security element has a main plane and microreflector arranged in a microreflector pattern and present at least one motif that, when the security element is tilted, has a motif effect that relates to the main plane. The microreflector pattern causes a first and a second motif effect, wherein the first motif effect occurs during a tilting movement about a primary axis, if the security element is at the same time oriented within a first tilting angle range about a secondary axis, and the second motif effect occurs during the tilting movement about the primary axis, if the security element is at the same time oriented within a second tilting angle range about the secondary axis.

A correspondingly adapted identity system and a computer program product with control commands are arranged to implement the method and/or operate the proposed system arrangement.

Abstract: The invention provides a method that allows an issuer system, e.g. of a bank, to have generated a plurality of anonymous accounts and cards for working up a stock and to only personalize them individually if required. In the personalization step at the card issuer, e.g. in the bank branch, a printing of the back side does not have to be performed, instead all the necessary printing of the back side is already effected at the card manufacturer during the manufacturing of the anonymous card. As a result, a simple, low-cost printer without a back-side printing option can be utilized for the personalization of the anonymous card.

Abstract: A method for checking the validity of a ticket involves transferring information from a control entity to a mobile device. A code is computed on the basis of this information, of a derived key and of a property individual for the mobile device, the code being subsequently checked by the control entity.

Abstract: A chipset for a mobile radio-enabled end device is provided in which an integrated subscriber identity module is arranged in a secure processor of the chipset, and in which an operating system of the secure processor is arranged or arrangeable. The operating system comprises a core OS and an application OS, wherein the application OS comprises a core OS verification apparatus which is arranged to verify the integrity of the core OS upon it being put into operation and to continue the putting into operation at most only in the case of a successful verification of the core OS and to cause a fault measure and/or to interrupt or terminate the putting into operation in the case of an unsuccessful verification.
