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.

Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for collecting data streams, such as data packets, on a network, such as the Internet, are disclosed. A metadata portion of at least one of the data streams is analyzed on the network and evaluated using a metadata processing engine to identify a relationship between at least two of the plurality of data streams, e.g., a relationship between multiple users of interest, a new user of interest, etc. Evaluation of the metadata and the relationships can be performed algorithmically, as predetermined by an analyst or as provided as preset options by the network monitoring system (NMS). An interface manager can receive the new user of interest, evaluate the new user of interest for redundancy against existing users of interest of the NMS; then communicate the new user of interest to at least one access device to collect data streams associated with the new user of interest.

Abstract: A method and system related to a replication and decoding of an online message data between a person of interest (POI) and a correspondent of the POI through a proxy server. According to one embodiment, a method of communication capture includes collecting, at a system server, and processing at a service platform, a content data associated with an online text, audio, or video conversation between a POI and a correspondent of the POI, and replaying the content data through a combination of a client application emulator and a proxy server to generate a realistic representation of the content data. In addition, the method may include identifying a client application based on a metadata associated with the online chat conversation.
