Smart card with domain-trust evaluation and domain policy management functions

摘要

One or more wireless communications device may include one or more domains that may be owned or controlled by one or more different owners. One of the domains may include a security domain having ultimate control over the enforcement of security policies on the one or more wireless communications devices. Another one of the domains may include a system-wide domain manager that is subsidiary to the security domain and may enforce the policies of one or more subsidiary domains. The system-wide domain manager may enforce its policies based on a privilege level received from the security domain. The privilege level may be based on the level of trust between an external stakeholder, such as an owner of a domain that is subsidiary to the system-wide domain manager, and the security domain.
