METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROTECTING PRIVACY ISSUE FOR AUTHENTICATION AND KEY MANAGEMENT FOR APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240244427 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROTECTING PRIVACY ISSUE FOR AUTHENTICATION AND KEY MANAGEMENT FOR APPLICATIONS
The patent application relates to a communication system that supports a higher data transmission rate in 5G or 6G networks.
- Receiving a security mode command message from an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) containing information on a public key of an Authentication and Key Management for Applications (AKMA) Anchor Function (AANF).
- Encrypting a combination of an AKMA Temporary Identifier (A-TID) and an Application Function Identifier (AF_ID) based on the public key.
- Transmitting an application session establishment request to the Application Function (AF) including the encrypted combination of the A-TID and the AF_ID.
Potential Applications: - Enhanced security in communication systems. - Improved data transmission rates in 5G and 6G networks.
Problems Solved: - Ensuring secure communication between User Equipment (UE) and Application Functions (AF). - Facilitating higher data transmission rates in advanced communication systems.
Benefits: - Enhanced data security. - Increased efficiency in data transmission. - Support for future generations of communication networks.
Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Data Transmission System for Next-Generation Networks This technology can be utilized in telecommunications, IoT devices, and other industries that require high-speed and secure data transmission.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the encryption process based on the public key enhance data security in communication systems? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology on the development of future communication networks?
Original Abstract Submitted
the disclosure relates to a fifth generation (5g) or sixth generation (6g) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. a method performed by a user equipment (ue) in a communication system is provided. the method includes receiving, from an access and mobility management function (amf), a non-access stratum (nas) security mode command message including information on a public key of an authentication and key management for applications (akma) anchor function (aanf), encrypting, based on the public key, a combination of an akma temporary identifier (a-tid) and an application function identifier (af_id) of an application function (af), and transmitting, to the af, an application session establishment request including information on the encrypted combination of the a-tid and the af_id.
