Abstract: Embodiments of the prevent invention provide a network access authentication method and device. The method comprises: receiving an authentication request message sent by a first serving network, wherein the authentication request message carries a user equipment pseudonym identifier generated by a user equipment; determining whether a local user equipment pseudonym identifier is asynchronous with the user equipment pseudonym identifier generated by the user equipment; and obtaining, if the determination result is yes, an encrypted international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) to carry out network access authentication on the user equipment. The embodiments of the present invention can solve the problem that a network access process in the related art does not provide a processing method for the case where the user equipment pseudonym identifier in the user equipment is asynchronous with the user equipment pseudonym identifier in a home network.

Abstract: This disclosure generally relates performing UE authentication and registration with the core network, and in particular, to supporting secure interactions between the UE and the target AMF when the UE is re-allocated to the target AMF. During a UE registration procedure, the initial AMF generate a 5G-GUTI for the UE and retrieves a candidate AMF list. The initial AMF sends the generated 5G-GUTI (or 5G-S-TMSI), the candidate AMF list, and a full registration request message to the (R)AN for storage and subsequent use. The initial AMF, once determines an AMF re-allocation is needed, instruct the UE to re-start the registration procedure with the core network, by using the generated 5G-GUTI. The (R)AN selects the target AMF, and forward the stored full registration request message to the target AMF to complete the registration.

Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to UE authentication and authorization with an edge data network in communication networks. Such authentication and authorization may be based on the generation and application of an edge computing key for a UE. Such edge computing key may be used for bi-directional authentication and may be dynamically updated during various stages of the authentication and authorization process. The authentication and authorization supports a UE connected to multiple AMFs belonging to different PLMNs.

Abstract: This disclosure generally relates performing UE authentication and registration with the core network, and in particular, to supporting secure interactions between the UE and the target AMF when the UE is re-allocated to the target AMF from an initial AMF. The Access Network element stores a candidate AMF list, and optionally, the original Registration Request message from the UE. The initial AMF, once determines an AMF re-allocation is needed, instruct the UE to re-start the registration procedure with the core network according to the stored candidate AMF list. With the solutions provided in this disclosure, the message interactions between the UE and the target AMF are integrity protected, without the need to upgrade the UE and without using an indirect connection of the core network.

Abstract: proviced is an authentication method based on a GBA, and the method includes: a BSF receives an initialization request message sent by a UE, wherein the initialization request message carries a first identifier of the UE, and the first identifier comprises at least one of the following: a SUCI, an identifier converted from the SUCI, and a TMPI associated with the subscriber identity; the BSF acquires an AV of the UE according to the first ID; the BSF completes GBA authentication with the UE according to the acquired AV. In this way, the privacy of the SUPI is protected for the UE, and the SUCI or the identifier converted from the SUCI is used to perform the bootstrapping process of the GBA, thereby improving the security of the GBA authentication process.
