Method and system for setting security of a portable terminal
First Claim
1. A method for setting security of a portable terminal including a USIM (Universal Subscriber Identity Module) card having an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) function, the method comprising:
- sensing USIM card information by a RFID reader when the portable terminal approaches the RFID reader;
requesting confirmation of registration of the sensed USIM card information to an access control server by the RFID reader;
transmitting the registration of the USIM card information to the RFID reader by the access control server;
transmitting a security setting signal to the portable terminal by the RFID reader when the USIM card information is determined to be registered in the access control server; and
establishing a security setting in such a manner that the portable terminal receiving the security setting signal is unable to execute at least one function of the portable terminal.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and system for setting security of a portable terminal by utilizing an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) function of a USIM (Universal Subscriber Identity Module) card used in Third Generation portable terminals. For this, USIM card information is registered in an access control server, and the USIM card information of the portable terminal is sensed through a RFID reader installed at a point of entry of a secure area, and the security setting of the portable terminal is automatically performed according to the registration of USIM card information in the access control server.
