Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1035518A2] The method involves monitoring the state of the use or exchange of the security module using at least two functional units, such as a microprocessor (120), a monitoring unit (12) and a detection unit (13). The state is signaled using the microprocessor. Sensitive data are erased by the monitoring unit when improper use or exchange is detected. The monitoring unit may monitor the correct installation or state of a battery (134). The detection unit may block the functionality on the basis of an exchange of the security module or a destruction condition. An Independent claim is included for an apparatus for performing the method.
