An approach is provided for performing authentication in a communication system. In one embodiment, a key is established with a terminal in a communication network according to a key agreement protocol. The agreed key is tied to an authentication procedure to provide a security association that supports reuse of the key. A master key is generated based on the agreed key. In another embodiment, digest authentication is combined with key exchange parameters (e.g., Diffie-Hellman parameters) in the payload of the digest message, in which a key (e.g., SMEKEY or MN-AAA) is utilized as a password. In yet another embodiment, an authentication algorithm (e.g., Cellular Authentication and Voice Encryption (CAVE)) is employed with a key agreement protocol with conversion functions to support bootstrapping.

A method of authenticating a user seeking access to a service from a service provider in a communication network, the method comprising: allocating to a user a plurality of service-specific identities for accessing respective services; issuing a request from the user, the request identifying the service to be accessed and including a public key of the user; at a certification authority, authenticating the request and issuing a public key certificate for binding the service-specific identity with the public key in the request, and returning the public key certificate to the user.

Method and apparatus for dealing with digital certificate requests in a mobile telecommunications network. A request for a digital certificate is sent from a subscriber to a network element via the network, the request including a first part and a second part. The first part is sent via an authenticated communication channel of the network and the second part is sent via an unprotected communication channel of the network.

A communication system including at least one user equipment and at least one network application functional entity is disclosed. The system further includes a bootstrapping functional entity. The user equipment includes means to transmit a request to push authentication information to at least one network application function. The bootstrapping functional entity includes receiving means for receiving the request from the user equipment, and transmitting means for transmitting the authentication information to the at least one network application function entity. The at least one network application function includes means adapted to receive unsolicited bootstrapping information from the bootstrapping functional entity.
摘要:
Authentication method for authenticating a mobile node to a packet data network, in which a shared secret for both the mobile node and the packet data network is arranged by using a shared secret of the mobile node and a telecommunications network authentication centre. In the method, the mobile node sends its subscriber identity to the packet data network together with a replay attack protector. The packet data network obtains authentication triplets, forms a session key using them, and sends back to the mobile node challenges and a cryptographic authenticator made by using the session key. The mobile node can then form the rest of the authentication triplets using the challenges and then form the session key. With the session key, the mobile node can check the validity of the cryptographic authenticator. If the authenticator is correct, the mobile node sends a cryptographic response formed using the session key to the packet data network for authenticating itself to the packet data network.
