    Abstract: Described herein is a simulacrum security device and methods. In one embodiment, a simulacrum or likeness of a physical security device is provided for use in conjunction with a software emulation of the security device. In one implementation, a “faux SIM card” is provided that does not contain Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) information itself, but instead enables a user to download Electronic SIM (eSIM) information (e.g., from a network or eSIM server) which is loaded into a software emulation of a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) device. The faux card is printed with an activation code, scan pattern, or other activation or access information. The subscriber purchases the faux card, and enters the activation code into a device; the entered activation code enables the device to log onto a network, and download the appropriate eSIM data. Delivery of eSIM information as enabled by the faux card addresses deficiencies in existing SIM distribution schemes, provides users with an enhanced perception of security, and further addresses various legal requirements.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for providing controlled switching of electronic access control clients (e.g., electronic Subscriber Identity Modules (eSIMs)) without requiring network access are set forth herein. In one embodiment, a method for swapping of subscriptions and/or profiles for without network supervision that prevents possibly malicious high frequency switching is disclosed. For example, a secure element included in a mobile device can be configured to issue, to a security module included in the mobile device, a request for the security module to carry out an authentication of a user of the mobile device. Upon determining, based on results received from the security module, that the authentication is successful, the secure element can generate one or more credits in accordance with the results, where each credit of the one or more credits can be used to carry out an eSIM management operation within the secure element.

    Abstract: The embodiments set forth techniques for an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) to conditionally require, when performing management operations in association with electronic Subscriber Identity Modules (eSIMs), human-based authentication. The eUICC receives a request to perform a management operation in association with an eSIM. In response, the eUICC determines whether a policy being enforced by the eUICC indicates that a human-based authentication is required prior to performing the management operation. Next, the eUICC causes the mobile device to prompt a user of the mobile device to carry out the human-based authentication. The management operation is then performed or ignored in accordance with results of the human-based authentication.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique for updating firmware of an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) included in a mobile device. The technique includes the steps of (1) receiving, from a firmware provider, an indication that an updated firmware is available for the eUICC, (2) in response to the indication, providing, to the firmware provider, (i) a unique identifier (ID) associated with the eUICC, and (ii) a nonce value, (3) subsequent to providing, receiving, from the firmware provider, a firmware update package, wherein the firmware update package includes (i) authentication information, and (ii) the updated firmware, (4) subsequent to verifying the authentication information, persisting, to a memory included in the mobile device, a hash value that corresponds to the updated firmware, and (5) installing the updated firmware on the eUICC.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for efficiently distributing and storing access control clients within a network. In one embodiment, the access clients include electronic Subscriber Identity Modules (eSIMs), and an eSIM distribution network infrastructure is described which enforces eSIM uniqueness and conservation, distributes network traffic to prevent “bottle necking” congestion, and provides reasonable disaster recovery capabilities. In one variant, eSIMs are securely stored at electronic Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) appliances which ensure eSIM uniqueness and conservation. Access to the eUICC appliances is made via multiple eSIM depots, which ensure that network load is distributed. Persistent storage is additionally described, for among other activities, archiving and backup.
