METHOD AND DEVICE FOR EXECUTION CONTROL FOR PROTECTED INTERNAL FUNCTIONS AND APPLICATIONS EMBEDDED IN MICROCIRCUIT CARDS FOR MOBILE TERMINALS
First Claim
1. A method for execution control of at least one protected internal function embedded in a microcircuit device (150) adapted to be used in cooperation with a mobile terminal (100), this method being characterized in that it is implemented in said microcircuit device and that it comprises the following steps,detecting (400) a command for placing said microcircuit device on standby, said command for placing on standby being detected on the basis of an item of information received from a mobile terminal into which is connected said microcircuit device;
- analyzing (415) at least one indication relative to the execution of said at least one protected internal function; and
,if said at least one protected internal function is liable to be affected by the execution of said command for placing on standby, deferring execution (410) of said command for placing on standby.

Abstract
The invention in particular relates to the execution control of protected internal functions and applications embedded in a mobile terminal microcircuit card. The control of a protected internal function is directly carried out in the microcircuit card. After having detected (400) a command for placing the card on standby, on the basis of an item of information received from a mobile terminal into which is connected the card, at least one indication relative to the execution of the protected internal function is analyzed (415). If the protected internal function is liable to be affected by the execution of the command for placing on standby, the execution of the command for placing on standby is deferred (410).
