Abstract
A system includes at least one telecommunications terminal having data processing capabilities, the telecommunications terminal being susceptible of having installed thereon software applications, wherein each software application has associated therewith a respective indicator adapted to indicate a level of security of the software application, the level of security being susceptible of varying in time; a software agent executed by the at least one telecommunications terminal, the software agent being adapted to conditionally allow the installation of software applications on the telecommunications terminal based on the respective level of security; a server in communications relationship with the software agent, the server being adapted to dynamically calculate the level of security of the software applications, and to communicate to the software agent the calculated level of security of the software applications to be installed on the telecommunications terminal.
