Patent number: 11032707Abstract: Disclosed herein are user equipment (UE) configured to communicate with a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) control function (CF) and a V2X Key Management Function (KMF). The UE includes processing circuitry configured to select a broadcast service from a plurality of available broadcast services and encode a key request message for transmission to the V2X KMF. The key request message includes a service identification (ID) of the selected broadcast service and identification of V2X security techniques supported by the UE. A key response message received from the V2X KMF in response to the key request message is decoded. The key response message identifies a V2X security technique of the V2X security techniques. The identified V2X security technique is execute to obtain security credentials provisioned by the V2X KMF. Data is encoded for transmission to a second UE during the selected broadcast service, where the encoding is based on the provisioned security credentials.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2016Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Intel IP CorporationInventors: Farid Adrangi, Meiyuan Zhao, Alexandre Saso Stojanovski

Patent number: 11026086Abstract: Non-pre-provisioned cellular Internet of things (IoT) devices can be added to an existing user's subscription with an operator and a service provider. The procedure can include obtaining a security association between a device and a user's smartphone using the operator's network. The operator and the service provider can verify the device with a certificate authority. In one embodiment, the smartphone reads (302) a URL pointer to the device certification and sends it (304) to the MME. The MME forwards (306) the URL to the HSS. The HSS verifies (312) the certificate and derives security credentials including the Master key K?. The HSS also derives another key K? used to establish security context between the IoT device and the smartphone. The device uses its key deriving function KDF with K? and Rand to generate K?.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Farid Adrangi, Ravikumar Balakrishnan, Zongrui Ding, Mohammad Mamunur Rashid
