  • Releasing a service on an electronic appliance
    Patent number: 8625797
    Abstract: There is proposed a method for enabling a service made available by an electronic device (100), wherein a registration request (114) is generated (S3) by the device (100) and sent (S7) to the registration server (300). The registration server (300) thereupon generates (S8) a registration confirmation (305) and sends (S9) it to the device (100), where the service is finally enabled by receiving and saving (S10) of the registration confirmation (305) on the device (100). In this connection, a trustworthy authority (200) sets up (S6, S12) a timeframe on the registration server (300) such that the registration server (300) sends (S9) a registration confirmation (305) only for a registration request (114) received within the timeframe, and the device (100) sends (S7) the registration request (114) to the registration server (300) within the timeframe.
