Abstract: A data object update system provides a flexible framework that can be used to upgrade, renew, replace or supplement data objects that are provisioned in a large base of network-enabled devices that been deployed in the field to end users. The system has the flexibility to configure, for example, the following items, based on different requirements received from network operators: which device key and/or certificate is to be used to authenticate request messages from network-enabled devices before a specific data object update request is accepted into the system; which device identifier is to be used to authorize data object update requests; which device identifier is to be used for generating device specific data objects; and which protection mechanism is to be used to secure the delivery of data objects to network-enabled devices.
