Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for identifying devices by a trusted service manager. According to one example embodiments of the disclosure, a method for identifying communications is provided. The method can include receiving, by a service provider from a device, a message comprising card production life cycle (CPLC) information associated with a secure element incorporated into the device; and evaluating, by the service provider, the received CPLC information in order to identify the secure element.

Claims

1. A method for incorporating identification information into device communications, the method comprising:

receiving, by a secure element associated with a device from an application stored on a separate memory of the device, a message to be communicated to a recipient;

associating, by the secure element, secure element identification information into the received message;

providing, by the secure element, the modified message to the application; and

directing, by the application, communication of the modified message to the recipient,

wherein the recipient utilizes the secure element identification information to identify an originator of the message.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the secure element identification information comprises card production life cycle (CPLC) information.
