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. After the UE initiates a first registration request, the initial AMF may retrieve a candidate AMF list and selects a target AMF to serve the UE. The initial AMF generates a 5G-GUTI for the UE, based on the selected target AMF. The initial AMF requests the UE to initiate a second registration request, by using the generated 5G-GUTI. With the solutions provided in this disclosure, the message interactions between the UE and the target AMF are integrity protected and/or ciphered, without the need to upgrade the UE and without using an indirect connection of the core network.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods, systems and devices for establishing secure communication between a user equipment and a service application in a wireless communication. One method includes receiving, by the user equipment, an authentication and key management for service applications identifier (AKMAID) from an authentication server function (AUSF) upon successful completion of an authentication process for registering the user equipment with the communication network. The method also includes storing, by the user equipment, the AKMAID; deriving, by the user equipment, an application key based on a base authentication key; sending, by the user equipment, a communication request to the service application, the communication request comprising the AKMAID; and receiving, by the user equipment, an application session establishment response to the communication request from the service application to establish a security communication session between the user equipment and the service application based on the application key.

Abstract: Provided are an authentication processing method and device, a storage medium, and an electronic device. The method includes that: a terminal receives an authentication request message from an authentication function; and in cases where authentication on the authentication request message fails, the terminal feeds back an authentication failure message to the authentication function. In cases where the cause of the authentication failure is a Message Authentication Code (MAC) failure and in cases where a cause of authentication failure is a Synchronization (Sync) failure, the terminal feeds back authentication failure messages of the same type to the authentication function.
