A network system is proposed comprising a network control element and a communication device (UE) associated to a subscriber, wherein the communication device (UE) is adapted to send a registration message (A) including subscriber information to be protected and an integrity code (MAC), to the network control element, wherein the communication device (UE) is adapted to calculate the integrity code (MAC) by using a part or whole of the registration message (A) including the subscriber information to be protected, and the network element is adapted to verify the integrity code (MAC) included in the registration message. Also a case is proposed in which the integrity code is calculated in the network control element and verified in the communication device (UE). Furthermore, corresponding methods are proposed.
