Security Negotiation Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448235 titled 'Security Negotiation Method and Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a security negotiation method that involves a terminal receiving security negotiation information from a centralized unit control plane (CU-CP)/centralized unit user plane (CU-UP). The security negotiation information includes an integrity protection indication identifier of the CU-UP. The terminal then determines whether to enable user-plane integrity protection based on the integrity protection indication identifier.

  • The patent application proposes a method for security negotiation in a communication system.
  • The method involves a terminal receiving security negotiation information from a centralized unit control plane (CU-CP)/centralized unit user plane (CU-UP).
  • The security negotiation information includes an integrity protection indication identifier of the CU-UP.
  • The terminal uses the integrity protection indication identifier to determine whether to enable user-plane integrity protection.
  • This method aims to enhance the security of the terminal by enabling user-plane integrity protection based on the received information.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Communication systems that require secure data transmission.
  • Mobile devices and terminals that need to protect the integrity of user-plane data.
  • Networks and systems where centralized control and user planes are utilized.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures the integrity of user-plane data by enabling integrity protection based on received information.
  • Enhances the security of terminals and communication systems by providing a method for security negotiation.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved security in communication systems by enabling user-plane integrity protection.
  • Enhanced protection against data tampering and unauthorized access.
  • Simplified security negotiation process for terminals.


Original Abstract Submitted

A security negotiation method includes receiving, by a terminal, security negotiation information from a centralized unit control plane (CU-CP)/a centralized unit user plane (CU-UP), where the security negotiation information includes an integrity protection indication identifier of the CU-UP, and determining, by the terminal based on the integrity protection indication identifier, whether to enable user-plane integrity protection of the terminal.
