Abstract

A method of authenticating and authorizing a wireless communication device for access to a communication service. The method comprises receiving a service request from a wireless communication device by a access node, parsing the service request by the access node, based on parsing the service request, determining by the access node that the wireless communication device is seeking combined authentication and service authorization, sending the service request by the access node to a hyperledger gateway, receiving an authentication success response associated with the wireless communication device and a service authorization success response by the access node from the hyperledger gateway, and sending the service request by the access node to a communication service computer system, whereby the service request is both authenticated and authorized by the hyperledger gateway in a combined transaction and a requested communication service is provided to the wireless communication device.
