Process and device for value added service access control
View Patent ↗This application concerns a process for controlling access by a user ( 7 ) to a value added service (VAS) ( 5 ) received via receiver device ( 2 ), designed for connection to a device ( 3 ) for transmission of said VAS via network ( 4 ). Receiver device ( 2 ) receives said VAS ( 5 ) from transmitter device ( 3 ) in partially enciphered form. Said VAS is transmitted by said transmitter device without any request from user ( 7 ). Receiver device ( 2 ) receives said VAS ( 5 ) from transmitter device ( 3 ) in partially enciphered form. This application also applies to the system for implementation of said process.
1. A process for a user ( 7 ) to access to a value added service (VAS) ( 5 , 19 ) received via a receiver device ( 2 , 16 ), designed for connection to a transmitter device ( 3 ) for said VAS via a network ( 4 , 17 ), comprising;
transmitting, said VAS by said transmitter device without any request from the user ( 7 ); and
informing the user of reception of said VAS and proposing to the user execution of an uncoded part, said VAS being transmitted in a partially enciphered form.
2. The process according to claim 1 , wherein said VAS is transmitted by said transmitter device during an off-peak period for network ( 4 ).
3. The process according to claim 1 or 2 of the preceding claims, wherein said VAS is downloaded to the receiver device without the user being informed.
4. The process according to claim 3 , wherein said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) receives said VAS ( 5 , 19 ) from transmitter ( 3 ) in at least partially enciphered form, and said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) deciphers said VAS by means of a deciphering key which user ( 7 ) must purchase.
5. The process according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) receives said VAS ( 5 , 19 ) from transmitter ( 3 ) in at least partially enciphered form, and said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) deciphers said VAS by means of a deciphering key which user ( 7 ) must purchase.
6. The process according to claim 1 , wherein said VAS is downloaded to the receiver device without the user being informed.
7. The process according to claim 6 , wherein said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) receives said VAS ( 5 , 19 ) from transmitter ( 3 ) in at least partially enciphered form, and said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) deciphers said VAS by means of a deciphering key which user ( 7 ) must purchase.
8. The process according to claim 1 , wherein said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) receives said VAS ( 5 , 19 ) from transmitter ( 3 ) in at least partially enciphered form, and said receiver device ( 2 , 16 ) deciphers said VAS by means of a deciphering key which user ( 7 ) must purchase.
9. A mobile telephone incorporating a user interface information processing and storage devices, a plurality of devices which inform, through the user interface, the user of reception of a value added service (VAS) received without any request from the user, said storage devices storing the received value added service (VAS), and further comprising devices which propose to the user execution of an uncoded part, and wherein said VAS is being transmitted in a partially enciphered form.
10. A machine accessed by a user ( 7 ) and designed for connection to transmitter devices via a network, comprising;
devices which inform the user of reception of a value added service (VAS) received without any request from the user; and
devices which propose to the user execution of an uncoded part, wherein said VAS is transmitted in a partially enciphered form.
