Patent number: 7558963Abstract: The present invention provides a means for determining authenticity of a combination of files which are downloaded to a mobile station, and which are related to one another. To achieve the stated object, in a system according to the present invention, mobile station 16, which is capable of running a Java-APP, receives an ADF from CP server device 12. Then mobile station 16 receives a SDF from trusted server device 18, which is identified by data contained in the ADF. Mobile station 16 calculates a hash value of certificate data contained in the ADF, and verifies whether the calculated hash value of the certificate data and a hash value of the certificate data which is contained in the SDF are identical to each other. Next, mobile station 16 receives a JAR file from CP server device 12. Mobile station 16 calculates a hash value of the JAR file, and verifies whether the calculated hash value of the JAR file and a hash value of the JAR file contained in the ADF are identical to each other.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2004Date of Patent: July 7, 2009Assignee: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Naoki Naruse, Yuichi Ichikawa, Tatsuro Oi, Nobuyuki Watanabe, Yasunori Hattori, Masato Takeshita, Masakazu Nishida, Mao Asai, Masayuki Tsuda, Atsuki Tomioka, Kazuhiro Yamada, Satoshi Washio, Dai Kamiya, Naoki Yamane, Keiichi Murakami

Patent number: 7421577Abstract: The present invention provides a means for reflecting modifications made in a server to data with regard to a scope of rights, which are granted to an application program operable in a communication device such as a mobile station, on data stored in the communication device. To achieve the aim, in a system according to the present invention, Java-AP software is provided to a mobile station by transmitting an ADF, a SDF and a JAR file from servers to the mobile station in that order. The SDF is a file containing data indicating restrictions of behavior of a Java-AP in a mobile station. The SDF also contains data indicating a validity state of the SDF, namely ‘valid’ or ‘invalid’, which is managed by management server device 18. Before a mobile station runs a Java-APP which is installed in the mobile station, the mobile station accesses management server device 18 and checks whether a SDF corresponding to the Java-APP is valid.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2004Date of Patent: September 2, 2008Assignee: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Yuichi Ichikawa, Naoki Naruse, Tatsuro Oi, Nobuyuki Watanabe, Yasunori Hattori, Masato Takeshita, Masakazu Nishida, Mao Asai, Masayuki Tsuda, Atsuki Tomioka, Kazuhiro Yamada, Dai Kamiya, Satoshi Washio, Naoki Yamane, Keiichi Murakami
