Abstract
An apparatus into which security information is provisioned through communication with a server may include: a communication interface receiving security data from the server; and a secure component including a secure storage and a controller storing the security information in the secure storage based on the security data. The communication interface may include a presentation layer handler performing mutual authentication between the apparatus and the server according to a first encryption protocol based on unique information assigned to the secure component, and an application layer handler requesting and receiving the security data to and from the server according to a second encryption protocol.
Claims20
An apparatus into which security information is provisioned through communication with a server, the apparatus comprising:
- a communication interface configured to receive security data from the server;
- and
- a secure component comprising a secure storage and a controller configured to store the security information in the secure storage based on the security data,
- wherein the communication interface comprises:
- a presentation layer handler configured to perform mutual authentication between the apparatus and the server according to a first encryption protocol based on unique information assigned to the secure component, and
- an application layer handler configured to request and receive, according to a second encryption protocol, the security data from the server that is mutually authenticated according to the first encryption protocol.
A method of provisioning security information into an apparatus, which includes a secure component, through communication with a server, the method comprising:
- obtaining unique information that is assigned to the secure component;
- performing mutual authentication between the apparatus and the server based on the unique information according to a first encryption protocol;
- requesting, according to a second encryption protocol, security data from the server that is mutually authenticated according to the first encryption protocol;
- receiving the security data from the server according to the second encryption protocol;
- and
- storing the security information in the secure component based on the received security data.
A method of provisioning security information into an apparatus through communication between a server and the apparatus, the method comprising:
- preparing, by the server, security data;
- mutually authenticating the server and the apparatus according to a first encryption protocol based on unique information assigned to a secure component included in the apparatus;
- requesting, by the apparatus that is mutually authenticated according to the first encryption protocol, for the security data according to a second encryption protocol;
- transmitting, by the server, the security data to the apparatus according to the second encryption protocol;
- and
- storing, by the apparatus, the security information in the secure component based on the security data.
