SECURE AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION IN TRUSTED NON-3GPP ACCESS NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240305982 titled 'SECURE AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION IN TRUSTED NON-3GPP ACCESS NETWORKS

The patent application describes an apparatus and system for secure authentication and identification in trusted non-3GPP access networks. A temporary identifier is generated by a Trusted Non-3GPP Gateway Function (TNGF) and sent to a User Equipment (UE) over an encrypted channel. The temporary identifier is unique and not associated with personally identifiable information of a user of the UE. The UE uses the temporary identifier to establish a secure connection with the TNGF.

  • Trusted Non-3GPP Gateway Function (TNGF) generates a temporary identifier for secure authentication and identification.
  • User Equipment (UE) receives the temporary identifier over an encrypted channel.
  • The temporary identifier is unique and not linked to personally identifiable information.
  • UE uses the temporary identifier to establish a secure connection with the TNGF.
  • Enhances security and privacy in non-3GPP access networks.

Potential Applications: - Secure authentication and identification in non-3GPP access networks. - Enhancing privacy and security for users in mobile communications.

Problems Solved: - Addressing security and privacy concerns in non-3GPP access networks. - Providing a secure method for authentication and identification without revealing personally identifiable information.

Benefits: - Improved security for users in non-3GPP access networks. - Enhanced privacy protection during authentication processes. - Secure establishment of connections between UE and TNGF.

Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Authentication Technology for Non-3GPP Access Networks This technology can be utilized by mobile network operators, IoT device manufacturers, and other entities that require secure authentication and identification in non-3GPP access networks. It can be integrated into various mobile communication systems to enhance security and privacy for users.

Questions about Secure Authentication and Identification in Non-3GPP Access Networks: 1. How does the temporary identifier generated by the TNGF ensure user privacy? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for IoT device security?


Original Abstract Submitted

an apparatus and system are described for secure authentication and identification in trusted non-3gpp access networks. a temporary identifier is generated by a trusted non-3gpp gateway function (tngf) and sent to a user equipment (ue) over an encrypted channel. the temporary identifier is unique and not associated with personally identifiable information of a user of the ue. the ue uses the temporary identifier to establish a secure connection with the tngf.
