Abstract

In a data transfer device which performs a data transfer processing to transfer data of a plurality of service applications in an old IC card to a new IC card, a list information acquisition unit acquires application list information of the plurality of service applications in the old IC card based on card identifier information acquired from the old IC card. A data acquisition unit acquires the transferred data of the plurality of service applications in the old IC card based on the acquired application list information, and records the transferred data in the new IC card.

Claims

1. A data transfer device which performs a data transfer processing to transfer data of a plurality of service applications in an old IC card to a new IC card, the data transfer device comprising:

a list information acquisition unit acquiring application list information of the plurality of service applications in the old IC card based on card identifier information acquired from the old IC card; and

a data acquisition unit acquiring the transferred data of the plurality of service applications in the old IC card based on the acquired application list information, and recording the transferred data in the new IC card.

4. The data transfer device according to claim 1 wherein the old IC card is provided with an application personalize command creation function, and the data transfer device further comprises a first unit requesting the old IC card to create information required for application personalization, and a second unit recording the information required for the application personalization in the new IC card based on an application personalize command which is created by the old IC card according to the request.

2. An IC card operation management system including a data transfer device, a business application system, and a card management system, the data transfer device performing a data transfer processing to transfer data of a plurality of service applications in an old IC card to a new IC card and comprising:

an identifier information acquisition unit requesting card identifier information to the old IC card and acquiring the card identifier information from the old IC card;

a list information acquisition unit requesting application list information of the plurality of service applications in the old IC card to the card management system based on the acquired card identifier information, and acquiring the application list information from the card management system; and

a data acquisition unit acquiring the transferred data of the service applications in the old IC card based on the acquired application list information, and recording the transferred data in the new IC card.

3. The IC card operation management system according to claim 2 wherein one of the data transfer device and the business application system is provided with an application personalize command creation function, and the data transfer device further comprises a first unit acquiring information required for application personalization from the old IC card, and a second unit recording the acquired information required for the application personalization in the new IC card based on an application personalize command which is created by said one of the data transfer device and the business application system.

5. The IC card operation management system according to claim 2 wherein the data transfer device is provided with an application personalize command creation function, and the data transfer device further comprises a first unit acquiring information required for application personalization sent from the business application system, a second unit requesting the old IC card to create the information required for the application personalization, based on the acquired information, and a third unit recording the information required for the application personalization in the new IC card, based on an application personalization command which is sent by the old IC card according to the request.
