Original Abstract Submitted
Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products for concealing a subscription identifier. The subscription identifier may be padded with a random number of characters. The padding may use characters not usable for the subscription identifier. The padded subscription identifier may be encrypted and output, possibly with an indication of the padding method used and, in an embodiment, an indication of the number of padding characters. The subscription identifier may be a user identifier, e.g., in a 5G network in which a wireless transmit/receive unit can conceal its identifier.
