APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SSP DEVICE AND SERVER TO NEGOTIATE DIGITAL CERTIFICATES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18544179 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SSP DEVICE AND SERVER TO NEGOTIATE DIGITAL CERTIFICATES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for a Local Bundle Assistant (LBA) negotiating a certificate with a Secondary Platform Bundle Manager (SPBM) in a wireless communication system. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- Transmitting a request message to a Secondary Platform Bundle Loader (SPBL) for information on certificates supported by a Secondary Secure Platform (SSP).
- Receiving information on certificates supported by the SSP, including certificate issuers corresponding to a family identifier, from the SPBL.
- Transmitting the information on certificates supported by the SSP to the SPBM.
- Receiving a certificate from the SPBM for key agreement, public key identifiers of certificate issuers to be used by the SSP, and information on the family identifier.

Original Abstract Submitted
A method of a local bundle assistant (LBA) negotiating a certificate with a secondary platform bundle manager (SPBM) in a wireless communication system including: transmitting a request message requesting information of certificates supported by a secondary secure platform (SSP) to a secondary platform bundle loader (SPBL) of the SSP; receiving the information of certificates supported by the SSP including information of certificate issuers corresponding to a family identifier from the SPBL; transmitting the information of certificates supported by the SSP to the SPBM; and receiving a certificate of the SPBM for key agreement, information of public key identifiers of certificate issuers to be used by the SSP, and information of the family identifier from the SPBM.
