Abstract
A method includes implementing, through a server of a Fifth Generation (5G) mobile network, a pseudo-Authentication Server Function (AUSF) component as a component of an architecture of a core mobile network of the 5G mobile network distinct from an existing AUSF module thereof executing on the server, and automatically routing a request for identity resolution of a User Equipment (UE) connectable to the 5G mobile network to the pseudo-AUSF component instead of the existing AUSF module, with the request including a concealed identifier of the UE. The method also includes automatically resolving the concealed identifier into a permanent identifier of the UE utilizing an existing Unified Data Management (UDM) module of the core mobile network based on communication between the pseudo-AUSF component and the existing UDM module, and automatically providing, through the existing UDM module and the pseudo-AUSF component, the permanent identifier of the UE to address the request.
