EU: eCall - Secure Wireless Internet (EU)

Description:

This solution is used within the E.U.. It combines standards associated with EU: eCall with those for I-M: Secure Wireless Internet (EU). The EU: eCall standards include upper-layer standards required to transmit the data that is necessary in case of accident.. The I-M: Secure Wireless Internet (EU) standards include lower-layer standards that support secure communications between two entities, either or both of which may be mobile devices, but they must be stationary or only moving within wireless range of a single wireless access point (e.g., a parked car). Security is based on X.509 certificates. A non-mobile (if any) endpoint may connect to the service provider using any Internet connection method.
