Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques, base stations, and user equipment devices (UEs) for performing base station authentication through access stratum signaling transmissions. The UE may operate in idle mode and may receive an authentication message from a base station through the wireless interface while operating in idle mode. The UE may determine whether a signature comprised within the authentication message is valid, and the UE may continue a connection procedure with the base station based on a determination that the signature is valid. If it is determined that the signature is invalid, the UE may designate the base station as a barred base station and may perform cell re-selection. The authentication message may be one of a radio resource control (RRC) connection setup message, a special RRC message, a media access control (MAC) message, or a random access channel (RACH) message comprising a random access response (RAR) message.

Abstract: Techniques to protect a subscriber identity, by encrypting a subscription permanent identifier (SUPI) to form one-time use subscription concealed identifiers (SUCIs) using a set of one-time ephemeral asymmetric keys, generated by a user equipment (UE), and network provided keys are disclosed. Encryption of the SUPI to form the SUCIs can mitigate snooping by rogue network entities, such as fake base stations. The UE is restricted from providing the unencrypted SUPI over an unauthenticated connection to a network entity. In some instances, the UE uses a trusted symmetric fallback encryption key KFB or trusted asymmetric fallback public key PKFB to verify messages from an unauthenticated network entity and/or to encrypt the SUPI to form a fallback SUCIFB for communication of messages with the unauthenticated network entity.

Abstract: Techniques for identity-based message integrity protection and verification between a user equipment (UE) and a wireless network entity, include use of signatures derived from identity-based keys. To protect against attacks from rogue network entities before activation of a security context with a network entity, the UE verifies integrity of messages by checking a signature using an identity-based public key PKID derived by the UE based on (i) an identity value (ID) of the network entity and (ii) a separate public key PKPKG of a private key generator (PKG) server. The network entity generates signatures for messages using an identity-based private key SKID obtained from the PKG server, which generates the identity-based private key SKID using (i) the ID value of the network entity and (ii) a private key SKPKG that is known only by the PKG server and corresponds to the public key PKPKG.

Abstract: This application pertains to encryption/decryption methods and related apparatuses. A communication device receives an initial layer-3 message. The initial layer-3 message includes an indication indicating that a part of the initial layer-3 message is encrypted. The communication device generates a keystream, and decrypts the encrypted part of the initial layer-3 message by performing an exclusive OR operation on the keystream and the initial layer-3 message.

Abstract: A device level lock policy, which applies to all smart secure platform (SSP) applications of a mobile device, is used to determine whether a particular SSP application can be activated. A tamper resistant hardware secure element (SE) includes a primary platform with a low level operating system (OS) and one or more SSP applications within one or more secondary platform bundles that include secondary platforms with high level OSs specific to the secondary platform bundles. The low level OS enforces the device level lock policy for all secondary platform bundles by verifying whether a lock policy for the SSP application is consistent with the device level lock policy. When verification succeeds, activation is allowed, and when verification fails, activation is disallowed. Subscription identifiers are not provided in unencrypted form to processing circuitry of the mobile device external to the tamper resistant hardware SE to provide subscriber identity privacy protection.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for generating and utilizing improved initialization vectors (IVs) when performing encryption and authentication in wireless communications. In some scenarios, a wireless communication device may generate one or more pseudorandom multi-bit values, e.g., using a respective plurality of key derivation functions (KDFs). A first portion of each value may be used as a respective key for encryption or authentication of traffic on the user plane or the control plane. A second portion of each value may be used as a nonce value in a respective IV for use with a respective key for encryption or authentication of traffic on the user plane or the control plane. In some scenarios, the nonce values may instead be generated as part of an additional pseudorandom value (e.g., by executing an additional KDF), from which all of the IVs may be drawn.

Abstract: Techniques to protect subscriber identity in messages communicated between a user equipment (UE) and a cellular wireless network entity by using multiple ephemeral asymmetric keys are disclosed. The UE determines multiple ephemeral UE public and secret key pairs, while the cellular wireless network entity provides a network public key to the UE. The network public key may be updated over time. Multiple encryption keys based on the multiple ephemeral UE secret keys and the public network key are derived and used to encrypt a subscription permanent identifier (SUPI) to generate multiple subscription concealed identifiers (SUCIs). Each SUCI is used only once for messages communicated to a cellular wireless network and discarded after use. New SUCI are generated when the network public key is updated.

Abstract: A preparation device has a chamber, molten metal containers, a rotatable base in the chamber and having a deposition substrate, laser sets generating a dual-pulse laser, a base controller and a data collection control unit. The containers communicate with the chamber and each has a pulse pressurization apparatus pressing the molten metal into the chamber. The laser sets correspond to the containers such that beams of an emitted dual-pulse laser bombard the pulsed droplets, plasmas are generated and are sputtered and deposited on the substrate forming a multi-element alloy thin film. The unit collects base temperature and displacement information, and controls the pressurization frequency of the pulse pressurization apparatus, and the emission frequency and energy of the dual-pulse laser of the laser sets controlling the frequency and energy of the dual-pulse laser bombarding the corresponding pulsed droplets. The base controller controls the base temperature, rotation and movement.
