Abstract
According to an aspect of the invention, a smartcard is conceived that comprises at least two pre-installed applications and an application user interface selector, wherein said application user interface selector is arranged to select and configure a specific authentication user interface corresponding to a specific one of the pre-installed applications in dependence on encoded information received from a host application.
Claims13
A smartcard comprising at least two pre-installed applications and an application user interface selector configured and arranged with circuitry, wherein said application user interface selector is arranged to select and configure a specific authentication user interface corresponding to a specific one of the pre-installed applications in dependence on encoded information, including a hash sum, that uniquely identifies the specific authentication user interface and that is received from a host application.
A smartcard system comprising:
- at least two pre-installed applications and an application user interface selector configured and arranged with circuitry to select and configure a specific authentication user interface corresponding to a specific one of the pre-installed applications in dependence on encoded information, including a hash sum, received from a host application;
- a host device coupled to a smartcard reader;
- and a smartcard, wherein the host device is arranged to execute said host application, wherein, when being executed by the host device, the host application generates said encoded information, and wherein the host device is arranged to transmit said encoded information to the smart card via the smartcard reader.
A method for configuring a smartcard comprising at least two pre-installed applications and an application user interface selector configured and arranged with circuitry, wherein said application user interface selector selects and configures a specific authentication user interface corresponding to a specific one of the pre-installed applications in dependence on encoded information, including a hash sum, that uniquely identifies the specific authentication user interface and that is received from a host application.
