Technique for Enabling Exposure of Information Related to Encrypted Communication - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18032863 titled 'Technique for Enabling Exposure of Information Related to Encrypted Communication
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes a technique for exposing information related to encrypted communication between a User Equipment (UE) and an application server in a mobile communication system. - The technique involves the establishment of a communication channel between the UE and a network node of the mobile communication system. - This communication channel acts as an application layer proxy, facilitating the communication between the UE and the application server. - Encrypted traffic is sent through the communication channel to the network node, which then delivers it to the application server. - The communication channel is also used to exchange supplemental information related to the encrypted traffic between the UE and the network node.
Original Abstract Submitted
A technique for enabling exposure of information related to encrypted communication between a User Equipment, UE, and an application server in a mobile communication system is disclosed. A method implementation of the technique is performed by the UE and comprises establishing (S) a communication channel with a network node of the mobile communication system, the communication channel being established as part of an application layer communication channel between the UE and the application server, wherein the network node acts as application layer proxy in the communication between the UE and the application server, and sending (S) encrypted traffic through the communication channel to the network node for further delivery to the application server, wherein the communication channel is used to exchange supplemental information related to the encrypted traffic between the UE and the network node.
