Embodiments disclosed herein relate to allowing unauthenticated UEs to gain restricted access to an operator network to access network access subscription service. Once the unauthenticated UE successfully downloads a subscription profile for accessing the operator network, the unauthenticated UE can disconnect and can, thereafter, authenticate to the operator network using the subscription profile. Embodiments disclosed herein can perform one-way authentication to the operator network for obtaining a limited connectivity to reduce DoS attacks on the operator network. More specifically, these embodiments can support unauthenticated UEs to allow unauthenticated UEs to access the operator network for RLOS while minimizing DoS attack.

Evolved packet core (EPC) solution for restricted local operator services (RLOS) access using device authentication

Apparatus, system and method to provide switchable coils in a computing device, comprising: a plurality of electrically conductive coils to transfer electromagnetic energy; a sensor coupled to a processor, to select a coil from among the plurality of electrically conductive coils; a switch to energize the selected coil; and a switch controller coupled to the switch and to the processor. In some embodiments, the plurality of coils may comprise an inductive charging interface. Some embodiments may further include a communication interface between the processor to the plurality of electrically conductive coils, the plurality of coils comprising an interface for near-field communications (NFC). The antenna coils may be arranged to provide improved NFC coverage when the computing device is in a respective predetermined physical configuration. Sensors may be used to detect the configuration and switch NFC communications to use a preferred antenna coil for the detected configuration.

Coil for mobile device context-driven switching and wireless charging

Logic to register a personal point of sale (POS) device. Logic may communicate with the registration processor to establish a secure communication channel. Logic may access a basic input output system to obtain platform information. Logic may transmit the platform information to the registration processor to identify a certification associated with the device. Logic may communicate with a payment instrument via a card reader. Logic may transmit an encrypted message from the card reader to the registration processor to bind the payment instrument to the device. Logic may receive a communication from the device comprising platform information. Logic may perform a security protocol to establish a secure communication channel with the device. Logic may determine an existence of the certification for the device in the database based upon the platform information. And logic may register the platform in response to locating the certification of the platform.

Methods and arrangements for a personal point of sale device

Embodiments herein may include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media, for a multi-access edge computing (MEC) system. A MEC orchestrator is to receive a request for service that includes a workload from a user agent; and facilitate formation of a SLA for servicing the workload. To facilitate the formation of the SLA includes to obtain, via a decentralized contracting system, bids from a plurality of service providers to respectively service a plurality of functions or tasks of the workload. The MEC orchestrator is also to translate the workload into the plurality of functions or tasks, and schedule servicing of the functions of tasks with the one or more service providers, including one or more edge computing devices, in accordance with the SLA. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Multi-access edge computing (MEC) service contract formation and workload execution

Systems, methods, and devices authenticate mobile network cellular cells using asymmetric/public-key cryptography algorithms (e.g., Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA)) through integrity protecting the cellular cells broadcasted messages (e.g., paging and/or system information blocks (SIBs) system information broadcast messages) by message authentication code (MAC).

Mobile cellular networks authenticated access

Systems and methods of protecting an initial NAS message are described. Depending on whether a security context for a serving PLMN is stored, the UE uses either a public key from the serving PLMN or a key from the security context to encrypt parts of the initial NAS message. An initial NAS message containing the encrypted parts is then sent to an AMF of the serving PLMN. The serving PLMN public key is transmitted via a SIB. Prior to transmission of the initial NAS message or in parallel with it, an RRC message is sent to the base station. The RRC message contains the UE identifier and/or a NSSAI encrypted using the serving PLMN public key.

Protection of initial non-access stratum protocol message in 5G systems

Systems and methods of protecting an initial NAS message are described. The NAS message is encrypted using the home PLMN public key during initial registration with the network using a registration request message. An AMF of the serving PLMN sends a serving PLMN public key which is then used to encrypt information including an S-NSSAI of later initial NAS messages after initial registration is completed. The S-NSSAI may not be sent in the later initial NAS message if the S-NSSAI is provided at an access stratum level. The RRC message may contain an indication that the S-NSSAI is encrypted using the serving PLMN public key.

Evolved packed core (EPC) solution for restricted local operator services (RLOS) access using device authentication

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods, apparatuses, storage media, and systems for performing a restricted local operator services (RLOS) authorization procedure. Various embodiments enable a network to authorize a user equipment (UE) with an RLOS access or subscription properly while aiding in minimizing or preventing potential denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Techniques in evolved packet core for restricted local operator services access

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus related to receiving, at an access point and from a wireless communication station, a media access control (MAC) address of the wireless communication station; assigning, at the access point, a prefix to the MAC address of the wireless communication station; receiving, at the access point and from the wireless communication station, a frame comprising the prefix and a random MAC address; replacing, at the access point and using the prefix, the random MAC address in the frame with the MAC address of the wireless communication station, thereby resulting in a processed frame; and transmitting, at the access point and to a destination device, the processed frame.

Systems and methods to enable network coordinated MAC randomization for Wi-Fi privacy

Systems and methods of providing steering of roaming (SOR) information in a 5G VPLMN are described. A UE receives a REGISTRATION ACCEPT message from an AMF of the VPLMN during initial or mobility registration of the UE in the VPLMN and DL NAS TRANSPORT message thereafter. The message has a Payload container information element (IE) set to secured packet. The SOR information indicates a list of preferred PLMN/access technology combinations, which is uploaded to a memory after a successful security check to verify that the list of preferred PLMN/access technology combinations is provided by the UDM of the HPLMN and is not tampered with by the VPLMN. When the message also contains a request for acknowledgment of successful security check of the list of preferred PLMN/access technology combinations, the UE transmits to the AMF the acknowledgment in a REGISTRATION COMPLETE or a DL NAS TRANSPORT message.

Steering of roaming in 5G systems

Device to device (D2D) communication can be performed with packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) based encapsulation without internet protocol (IP) addressing. The non-IP D2D PDCP-encapsulated communication can further include two forms of secure data transfer. A first non-IP D2D PDCP-encapsulated communication can be a negotiated non-IP D2D PDCP-encapsulated communication. A second non-IP D2D PDCP-encapsulated communication can be a non-negotiated non-IP D2D communication. The non-negotiated non-IP D2D PDCP-encapsulated communication can include a common key management server (KMS) version and a distributed KMS version. The encapsulated communication can be used with various protocols, including a PC5 protocol (such as the PC5 Signaling Protocol) and wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) protocols.
