Methods for provisioning universal integrated circuit cards
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising;
providing a first mobile network operator trusted manager service system of a first mobile network operator with information relating to configuration data to enable the first mobile network operator trusted service manager system to manage content and memory allocation for a plurality of security domain containers of a universal integrated circuit card of a communication device;
detecting that the communication device is to be provided services by a second mobile network operator; and
responsive to determining that there is a pre-arrangement between the first mobile network operator and the second mobile network operator, delegating security management of the universal integrated circuit card of the communication device by providing a second mobile network operator trusted service manager system of the second mobile network operator with the information relating to the configuration data to enable the second mobile network operator trusted service manager system to manage the content and the memory allocation for the plurality of security domain containers of the universal integrated circuit card of the communication device,wherein the second mobile network operator trusted service manager determines a first group of services provided to the communication device by the first mobile network operator and determines a second group of services provided to the communication device by the second mobile network operator, wherein the second mobile network operator trusted service manager adjusts the memory allocation for the plurality of security domain containers according to the second group of services.

Abstract
A system is described that can perform a method for receiving a request to modify a universal integrated circuit card, generating a package comprising configuration data for modifying the universal integrated circuit card, instructing an over-the-air system to transmit the package encrypting the package with a transport key to generate an encrypted package, and transmitting the encrypted package to a communication device communicatively coupled to the universal integrated circuit card to provision the universal integrated circuit card. The system can also perform a method of providing a mobile network operator trusted service manager system information relating to the configuration data to enable the mobile network operator trusted service manager system to manage content and memory allocation of the universal integrated circuit card.
