Abstract
The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for providing a Law Enforcement Agency (200) with things data related to one or more target identities using a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) Data Manager (124), which is managing RFID data traffic comprising things data in a Radio-Frequency Data system, wherein said manager (124) is provided with an Intercepting Control Element (ICE; 160). The invention further involves receiving to the Intercepting Control Element (160) a request to intercept dynamic and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities. It further involves collecting in the Intercepting Control Element (160), dynamic things and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities for which things data has been requested and forwarding the collected data to a Law Enforcement Management Function unit.

20. A method for providing a Law Enforcement Agency with things data related to one or more target identities using a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) Data Manager, which manages RFID data traffic comprising things data in a Radio-Frequency Data system, wherein said RFID manager is provided with an Intercepting Control Element (ICE), the method comprising:
-
receiving, at the ICE, a request to intercept dynamic and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities; collecting, in the ICE, the dynamic things and optionally static things data related to the one or more of the target identities for which things data has been requested; and forwarding the collected data to a Law Enforcement Management Function (LEMF) unit. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. An Intercepting Control Element (ICE) in a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) Data Manager adapted to provide a Law Enforcement Agency with dynamic things data and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities, wherein said RFID Data Manager manages RFID data traffic comprising things data in a Radio-Frequency Data system, wherein said ICE comprises:
-
a receiver to receive a request to intercept dynamic and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities; a data acquiring unit configured to collect the dynamic things and optionally static things data related to one or more of the target identities for which things data has been requested; and a sender to forward the collected things data to a Law Enforcement Management Function unit. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32)

38. A computer program product comprising non-transient computer program code loadable into a processor, wherein when executed in the processor the computer program code is configured to execute a method for providing a Law Enforcement Agency with things data related to one or more target identities using a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) Data Manager, which manages RFID data traffic comprising things data in a Radio-Frequency Data system, wherein said RFID manager is provided with an Intercepting Control Element (ICE), wherein the method executed by the processor comprises:
-
receiving, at the ICE, a request to intercept dynamic and optionally static things data related to one or more target identities; collecting, in the ICE, dynamic things and optionally static things data related to the one or more of the target identities for which things data has been requested; and forwarding the collected data to a Law Enforcement Management Function (LEMF) unit.
