Abstract

For transmitting a secured data package from a computer system to a short-range communication device, the secured data package is transmitted from the computer system via a mobile radio network to a mobile communication apparatus. The mobile communication apparatus is placed in the communication range of the short-range communication device and receives from the short-range communication device a data read request, which includes device location information. The mobile communication apparatus determines the current location of the mobile communication apparatus. In case of correspondence of the current apparatus location with the received device location information, the mobile communication apparatus determines positive access authorization and transfers the secured data package to the short-range communication device.
