MOBILE DEVICE AND NFC SERVICE PROTECTION METHOD OF THE MOBILE DEVICE
First Claim
1. A near-field communication (NFC) service protection method of a mobile device, the mobile device comprising an NFC controller, one or more security elements, a global position system (GPS), a display screen and a storage system, the method comprising:
- (a) acquiring a geographic location of the mobile device using the GPS;
(b) setting a security code for an NFC service of each of the security elements according to the geographic location of the mobile device, and storing a security protection of the NFC service corresponding to each of the NFC services into the storage system;
(c) selecting an NFC service from one of the security elements through an NFC service protection interface displayed on the display screen, and performing the NFC service by executing an NFC application stored in one of the security elements corresponding to the NFC service through the NFC controller;
(d) determining whether any NFC service needs to disable the security protection of the NFC service; and
(e) deleting the security code of the NFC service to disable the security protection of the NFC service if the NFC service needs to be disable the security protection.

Abstract
In a near-field communication (NFC) service protection method of the mobile device, the mobile device includes an NFC controller, one or more security elements, a global positioning system (GPS) and a storage system. The method sets a security code for an NFC service of each of the security elements according to the geographic location of the mobile device as acquired by the GPS, and stores a security protection of the NFC service corresponding to each of the NFC services into the storage system. After an NFC service is selected from one of the security elements, and the NFC service is performed by executing an NFC application corresponding to the NFC service through the NFC controller. In addition, the method deletes the security code of the NFC service to disable the security protection of the NFC service when the NFC service needs to disable the security protection.
