    Abstract: Convergence of a 5th-Generation communication system supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-Generation system(s) with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT) may be applied to intelligent services. Operator specific services are permitted and provided by allowing an unauthorized terminal to search for and access the such services, and includes notifying a terminal of information corresponding to “operator specific services” by allowing a base station to broadcast predetermined information, displaying information acquired by a terminal, matching information acquired by the terminal with information broadcast from a base station to arrange services, requesting access and notifying a terminal performs an access for “operator specific services” upon accessing a network, providing a menu for determining whether neighboring base stations are capable of “operator specific services” to a user of a terminal, and allowing the terminal to determine whether there is the base station broadcasting the information.

    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for mutual authentication between two smart security media for bundle transfer between the security media. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a first device for providing a bundle for the second device includes a transceiver; and at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to obtain information about a bundle to be transmitted to the second device, control the transceiver to transmit identification information of the bundle to the second device, control the transceiver to receive, from the second device, authentication information relating to bundle transfer of a second smart secure platform (SSP) of the second device, determine whether a second secondary platform bundle loader (SPBL) of the second SSP is a Spbl which is able to receive the bundle based on the authentication information relating to bundle transfer of the second SSP, and control the transceiver to transmit the bundle to the second device based on a result of the determining.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method and an apparatus for providing a dual subscriber identity module (SIM) function even in a terminal with a single embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) mounted are provided. A method and an apparatus for installing, activating, and managing a plurality of profiles are provided, so that even a terminal with a single eUICC mounted may provide a dual SIM function in a communication system. The method includes the following embodiments to achieve the foregoing aspect, a method in which an eUICC receives a command involving a profile state change from a local profile assistant (LPA), registers a proactive command, and notifies a modem of logical interface information for obtaining the proactive command, a method in which the eUICC determines whether to perform polling on a specific logical interface by combining predetermined information, such as the logical interface information received from the mode, the state of a logical interface collected and possessed by the modem, and the number of an interface on which a corresponding message is received, a method in which the modem receives and processes the proactive command by performing polling on the logical interface, and a method in which the eUICC receives the result of processing the proactive command and completely changes the state of a profile connected to the logical interface. Further, a method in which the eUICC selectively configures a REFRESH message depending on whether the modem supports multiple enabled profiles (MEP) and divisively transmits the message to the modem when the eUICC receives a request for eUICC memory resetting or a profile state change in the terminal may be provided.
