Abstract
A method for providing secure element partitions for an NFC enabled device for a plurality of card issuers, the method comprising creating in a secure element of the NFC enabled device a plurality of secure element partitions; and allocating said secure element partitions of the secure element to the respective card issuers.
Claims21
A method for providing secure element partitions for an NFC enabled device for a plurality of card issuers, the method comprising:
- creating in a secure element of the NFC enabled device a plurality of secure element partitions;
- and
- allocating said secure element partitions of the secure element to the respective card issuers.
(canceled)
An NFC enabled device, comprising:
- a secure element comprising a plurality of secure element partitions;
- a secure element partition loader for updating or loading executable code and data into each of the secure element partitions;
- and
- a secure element partition manager for identifying and selecting one of the secure element partitions allocated to a specific card issuer;
- wherein each of the secure element partitions has a security domain comprising an access rule application master having access rules and cryptographic keys;
- and
- the NFC enabled device further comprises a secure element partition cryptographic module for controlling access to the respective security domains of the secure element partitions.
4 more elements
A non-transitory computer program product comprising computer executable instructions that, when executed on a computer:
- creates in at least one secure element of the NFC enables device a plurality of secure element partitions;
- and
- allocates said secure element partitions of the secure element to the respective card issuers.
