Abstract

Disclosed are: a communication technique and a system therefor for fusing, with IoT technology, a 5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G system. Provided is a method for installing a profile of a terminal having an embed universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) in a mobile communication system, the method comprising: requesting for an eUICC authentication certificate to an eUICC and receiving the eUICC authentication certificate; and transferring a profile package to the eUICC so as to install a profile, wherein the received eUICC authentication certificate further comprises an eUICC manufacturer (EUM) authentication certificate.

Dependent claims

A method of a terminal having an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting at least one of requests for first information of the eUICC to the eUICC and receiving the first information of the eUICC from the eUICC,
transmitting a first message including the first information of the eUICC to a server and receiving a first response message including at least one of certificates of the server, in response to the first message from the server;
transmitting the at least one of certificates of the server to the eUICC and receiving second information of the eUICC including a one-time public key of the eUICC from the eUICC;
transmitting a second message including the second information of the eUICC to the server and receiving a second response message including a profile package in response to the second message from the server;
and
transmitting the profile package to the eUICC so as to install the profile package,
wherein the second information of the eUICC includes at least one of an eUICC manufacturer (EUM) certificate and an eUICC certificate.
