According to an aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of operating a communication device, the communication device being part of a group comprising two or more communication devices that share a subscription to a communication network. The method comprises receiving a group authentication challenge from the network, at least part of the group authentication challenge having been generated using group authentication information that is associated with the shared subscription. The device then generates a device specific response to the group authentication challenge using the group authentication information and device specific authentication information and sends the device specific response to the network. The device is for example a member of a machine-type communication device group.

A method for establishing a security association between a client and a service node for the purpose of pushing information from the service node to the client, where the client and a key server share a base secret. The method comprises sending a request for generation and provision of a service key from the service node to a key server, the request identifying the client and the service node, generating a service key at the key server using the identities of the client and the service node, the base secret, and additional information, and sending the service key to the service node together with said additional information, forwarding said additional information from the service node to the client, and at the client, generating said service key using the received additional information and the base key. A similar approach may be used to provide p2p key management.

Methods and apparatuses in a client terminal (400) and a web server (402) for enabling safe communication between said terminal and server. When the terminal obtains a web page from the server in a session, the terminal creates a context-specific key, Ks_NAF′, based on one or more context parameters, P1, . . . Pn, pertaining to said session and/or web page. The terminal then indicates the context-specific key in a login request to the server, and the server determines a context-specific key, Ks_NAF′, in the same manner to verify the client if the context-specific key determined in the web server matches the context-specific key received from the client terminal. The context-specific key is thus bound to and valid for the present context or session only and cannot be used in other contexts or sessions.

There is described herein a device (101) for communicating with a network. The device (101) comprises a communications unit for receiving data, a notification device for providing a notification to a user, and a control unit for controlling the operation of the communications unit and notification unit. The communications unit is configured to receive an information message (110, 112, 115), and to receive security authentication data (110, 112, 115) associated with the information message if such security authentication data is available. The control unit is configured to operate in a first or second configuration. In the first configuration it ignores the security authentication data, (111, 113), and instructs the notification unit to convey the notification to the user. In the second configuration, it verifies the information message (116) on the basis of the security authentication data and instructs the notification unit to convey the notification to the user if the verification is successful. The communications unit is configured to receive a configuration message (114) indicating the configuration in which the control unit should operate, and the control unit is configured to change configuration if the indicated configuration is different to the current configuration.

The present invention relates to a method and an operator network node for enabling a user-defined DRM domain of *SIMs hosted by *SIM-enabled devices. The operator network node is connectable to a *SIM based device and to a content provider node, and comprises means for establishing a secure channel between a *SIM-based device and an operator network node, means for creating a DRM domain defined by at least one user of *SIM-based devices, means for receiving at the operator network node a registration request from the *SIM-based device to register the *SIM of the *SIM-based device into the created user-defined DRM domain, means for registering at the operator network node the *SIM of the *SIM-based device into the registered user-defined DRM domain, and means for making the registered information associated with the user-defined DRM domain available to the content provider. The invention also relates to a further method and the content provider comprising means for accessing in the operator network node registered information associated with a registered user-defined DRM domain comprising *SIMs of a user, and means for establishing a content provider defined DRM domain comprising at least one of the *SIMs of the user-defined DRM domain.

An IMS-enabled control channel for an IPTV service is provided by receiving at a Serving Call/State Control Function (S-CSCF) a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) REGISTER message, the SIP REGISTER message identifying the originating user, receiving at the originating user a response from the S-CSCF indicating that the originating user has been authorized, and sending a SIP INVITE message from the S-CSCF to establish an open channel connection with a selected IPTV Application Server (AS). This open channel connection can then be used for the transmission of control messages, such as for starting play, starting recording, stopping play, etc., between the STB and the IPTV applications server, as well as for the delivery of personalized content, such as advertisements, voting responses, personalized voting triggers and targeted interactive events. By maintaining an open control channel with the IPTV AS, this offers a substantial reduction in the setup delay times for different applications.

摘要:
A method of performing hand-off of a Mobile Node from a previous Access Point to a new Access Point within a WLAN domain, where the previous and new Access Points are connected respectively to previous and new Access Routers. The method comprises, following a MAC authentication exchange between the Mobile Node and the new Access Point, sending a MAC Reassociation Request from the Mobile Node to the New Access Point, forwarding said Reassociation Request to said new Access Router, and sending the Reassociation Request from said new Access Router to said previous Access Router within an IP hand-off request, and authenticating the Reassociation Request at the previous Access Router and initiating the tunnelling of IP packets received at the previous Access Router and destined for said Mobile Node, towards said new Access Router.
