Abstract

A processing device of an NFC device receives a request, initiated by a first application loaded in a memory of the NFC device, to modify one or more parameters of an NFC routing table of an NFC router of the NFC device. The NFC routing table has parameters indicating the devices to which NFC messages are to be routed. The processing device retrieves a first identifier associated with the application and transmits the first identifier to the NFC router. The NFC router, based on the first identifier, verifies whether or not the application is authorized to modify the routing table.
