Abstract
A method for securing radio connections comprises performing a connection setup with a user equipment (UE); determine that security information is needed for the UE based on an event which triggers a need of the security information; send an indication to a second network node to request the security information for the UE; and receiving the security information from the network node via a UE context setup procedure. The method may avoid a waste of resource in network by determining whether the UE is required to set up a security procedure by either a network node of a radio access network or a management and function node of a core network.
