An edge enabler server of an edge data network is configured to receive a verification request comprising an edge enabler client identification (EEC ID), wherein the EEC ID uniquely identifies an edge enabler client (EEC), determine whether the EEC ID is an authorized EEC ID and provide a verification response based on whether the EEC ID is authorized.

Edge enabler client identification authentication procedures

A user equipment (UE) is configured to join a multicast broadcast service (MBS) session. The UE sends, to a network function, a protocol data unit (PDU) modification request comprising a request to join a multicast broadcast service (MBS) session, generates a first key (K), receives a PDU session modification complete message comprising an encrypted second key (K) and a key identification (KID) corresponding to the Kand decrypts the Kiss using the K.

Multicast broadcast service keys

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for security enhancement with respect to reselection of relay user equipment.

Technologies for relay user equipment reselection

Techniques for identity-based message integrity protection and verification between a user equipment (UE) and a wireless network entity, include use of signatures derived from identity-based keys. To protect against attacks from rogue network entities before activation of a security context with a network entity, the UE verifies integrity of messages by checking a signature using an identity-based public key PKderived by the UE based on (i) an identity value (ID) of the network entity and (ii) a separate public key PKof a private key generator (PKG) server. The network entity generates signatures for messages using an identity-based private key SKobtained from the PKG server, which generates the identity-based private key SKusing (i) the ID value of the network entity and (ii) a private key SKthat is known only by the PKG server and corresponds to the public key PK.
