    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Embodiments herein disclose methods and systems for managing relocating EEC context information from a source EES (108) or from an EEC (104) of a user device (102), according to embodiments as disclosed herein. The target EES (108) includes an edge enabler client (EEC) controller (210), a communicator (220), a memory (230), a processor (240), and an EAS controller (250). The EEC controller (210) is configured to maintain an EEC context information about the EEC, based on at least one of EEC registration on the source EES, the EEC requesting a subscription for an edge enabler service with the source EES, or by receiving the EEC context information from another source EES. The EEC controller (210) is further configured to detect a need to relocate the EEC context information to target EES. The EEC controller (210) is further configured to relocate the EEC context information to the target EES.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide a method for providing a service to an edge application (600). The method includes receiving, by a server (500), at least one of a request for accessing the service associated with a User Equipment (300) from the edge application (600), and a request for a user consent associated with the UE (300) from the edge application (600). The method includes retrieving, by the server (500), the user consent from the edge enabler client (100), where the user consent indicates a consent of a user of the edge enabler client (100) to provide at least one of the service and the user consent with the edge application (600). The method includes sending, by the server (500), at least one of the service and the user consent to the edge application (600).

    Abstract: A method and system for authenticating application program interface (API) invokers using a common application program interface framework (CAPIF) is provided. The method includes establishing by a CAPIF core function (CCF) a secure Transport Layers Security (TLS) connection with at least one API invoker, on receiving a connection request from the at least one API invoker to access at least one service API on a CAPIF-2e interface. Further, the method includes determining by the CCF at least one security method to be used by the at least one API invoker for a CAPIF-2e interface security (C2eIS) of the at least one API invoker for accessing the at least one service API on a CAPIF-2e interface. The method further includes enabling the C2eIS by an API exposing function (AEF) the at least one API invoker based on the determined at least one security method.

    Abstract: Provided is an API invoker of performing an onboarding. The API invoker includes a transceiver and a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to obtain, from a service provider, onboarding information including an onboarding credential and information of a CAPIF core function, establish a secure session with the CAPIF core function based on the onboarding information and control the transceiver to transmit, to the CAPIF core function, an onboard API invoker request message along with the onboarding credential and to receive an onboard API invoker response message based on a result of a validating the onboarding credential at the CAPIF core function.
