    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 a subscription data update method and apparatus, a node, and a storage medium, where the method includes: in a case where a first network function node determines that authentication and key management for applications (AKMA) subscription data of a user is updated, determining, by the first network function node, a second network function node storing an AKMA context of the user; sending, by the first network function node, a subscription data management notification message to the second network function node; and receiving, by the first network function node, a subscription data management notification response message sent by the second network function node; where the subscription data management notification response message is sent after the second network function node deletes the AKMA context of the user according to the subscription data management notification message.

    Abstract: A system and method of registration with AMF re-allocation. The system and method includes receiving, by an initial AMF from a wireless communication device via a RAN, a registration request comprising a first device identifier associated with the wireless communication device. The system and method includes determining, by the initial AMF, an identifier type associated with the first device identifier. The system and method includes generating, by the initial AMF, a reroute message comprising a second device identifier. The system and method includes originating, by the initial AMF to the wireless communication device, a security mode command message comprising a redirection criteria or an integrity negotiation algorithm, the security mode command message causes the wireless communication device to set the redirection criteria allowing the wireless communication device to accept a request message that is not integrity protected and return a security mode complete message to the initial AMF.

    Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to updating and synchronizing security configuration in communication networks. Performed by a wireless device in a wireless network, the method includes receiving, from a first network element hosting an application function, a first message comprising at least one of: an Authentication and Key Management for Applications (AKMA) anchor key identifier associated with the wireless device; an authentication method indicator indicating an authentication method; or a set of parameters associated with the authentication method.
