  • Publication number: 20240037236
    Abstract: Provided is a method to update an OS installed in a secure element on an OS update platform exposing the same ES9+ interface as an SM-DP+, the secure element being an eUICC or an iUICC cooperating with a terminal, the secure element and the terminal being comprised in a device. The method comprises loading an OS update script in the OS update platform of the secure element manufacturer, triggering the LPA of the terminal to connect to the OS update platform by using the ES9+ SM-DP+ protocol, downloading by the LPA the OS update script in an ISD-P of the secure element and installing the OS update script in the ISD-P of the secure element, and after the installation of the OS update script in the ISD-P, return by the secure element an execution result to the OS update platform through the LPA.

  • Publication number: 20200045518
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for anticipating the setup of a relation of trust between a first vehicle called central vehicle and at least a second vehicle, wherein two interaction areas are defined relatively to the position of the central vehicle, the first interaction area called exchange area comprising the central vehicle and the second interaction area called pre-authentication area being defined in a way that it has to be crossed by said second vehicle for it to enter into the exchange area, the method comprising the steps of: detecting if the second vehicle is localized in the pre-authentication area associated with the central vehicle; authenticating the central vehicle and the second vehicle if not already authenticated; upon successful authentication, providing the central vehicle and the second vehicle with at least one credential to set up the relation of trust for it to be already established when the second vehicle is present in the exchange area associated with the central vehicle.
