Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for adapting security settings of a communication station based on security relevant events. The communication station may be associated with an identification module. A security registry in the identification module may be updated according to an identified security related event occurring in the communication station, and a security level of the communication station may be adapted and/or enforced according to the security registry (e.g., as updated according to the identified even) of the identification module. The security relevant event may be identified and stored in an event registry, in one or both of the communication station and the identification module. The communication station may comprise a workstation and a mobile terminal that includes the identification module.
