Abstract

The invention solves the problem of lack of consistency in the policy handling of cellular devices and non-cellular devices. Security credentials that are acceptable to the core network are enabled by the invention to be used for devices that do not have access to such security credentials. This results in consistency in how policy is handled, as it enables the core network to handle policy for all devices, regardless of whether they have access to acceptable security credentials. Acceptable security credentials may be SIM-based credentials or certificate-based credentials, or any acceptable type of security credentials.
