Your GSM Phone Becomes a Web Server!

    The WebSIM is a GSM Smartcard (SIM) with a built-in Web Server. It is accessible from the Internet and processes HTTP-Request, like any other Web server on the Internet.

The main contribution of this approach is to integrate the GSM security infrastructure into the Internet: The mobile phone works as a wireless smart card reader, and HTTP-request can be sent directly from the Internet to the GSM smart card. There are a number of applications for the WebSIM, e.g. securing mobile e-commerce.
