Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques for securely identifying applications in a communication network are disclosed. For example, a method comprises receiving, at user equipment, a data item associated with an application program that is installed or being installed on the user equipment. The method further comprises storing, by the user equipment, the data item with an identifier of the application program. The method still further comprises utilizing, by the user equipment, the stored data item when deciding to apply a route selection rule for data traffic associated with the application program.
