    Abstract: Embodiments may include a user equipment (UE) configured to obtain a Mobile Subscriber Identification Number (MSIN) from an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) of the UE, encrypt the MSIN to generate a Subscription Concealed Identifier (SUCI) in a Network Access Identifier (NAI) format, and send the SUCI to the non-3GPP access network for authentication of the UE, and a network element of a home 3GPP network configured to receive, by a 5G Non-seamless WLAN Offload (NSWO) Function, an authentication request including the SUCI from the non-3GPP access network, determine, by the 5G NSWO Function, based on the SUCI, that the UE should be authenticated by an authentication function of the home 3GPP network, and provide the authentication request including the SUCI to the authentication function of the home 3GPP network for processing based on the determination that the UE should be authenticated by the authentication function.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques that may be applied, for example, in a multi-slice network for maintaining privacy when attempting to access the network. An exemplary method generally includes transmitting a registration request message to a serving network to register with the serving network; receiving a first confirmation message indicating a secure connection with the serving network has been established; transmitting, after receiving the first confirmation message, a secure message to the serving network comprising an indication of at least one configured network slice that the UE wants to communicate over, wherein the at least one configured network slice is associated with a privacy flag that is set; and receiving a second confirmation message from the serving network indicating that the UE is permitted to communicate over the at least one configured network slice.

    Abstract: Aspects relate to user equipment (UE) to user equipment (UE-to-UE) relaying in a communication system. At least two remote UEs and a UE-to-UE relay receive provisioned security information from the wireless communication network, where the security information includes discovery parameters and relay security information. The security information provisioned by the wireless communication network is used to establish a connection between the two UEs and the UE-to-UE relay device including discovery of the UE-to-UE relay by the remote UEs. Furthermore, the provisioned security information is used to establish a secure connection between the two remote UEs via the UE-to-UE relay device.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a relay user equipment may establish a sidelink unicast link with a remote UE via a sidelink signaling interface; receive, from a network entity, configuration information comprising at least one of: remote UE link identifier information associated with the sidelink unicast link for a relay service, an RLC channel mapping between the one or more RLC channels of the sidelink unicast link and the link with the network entity, or data routing information associated with the relay service; configure the one or more RLC channels for the sidelink unicast link and the link with the network entity based at least in part on the configuration information; and relay communications between the remote UE and the network entity based at least in part on the configuration information. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Embodiments include devices and methods for providing secure communications between a first computing device and a second computing device are disclosed. A processor of the first computing device may determine in a first application software first security key establishment information. The processor may provide the first security key establishment information to a communication layer of the first computing device for transmission to the second computing device. The processor may receive, in the first application software from the communication layer of the first computing device, second security key establishment information received from the second computing device. The processor may determine a first security key by the first application software based at least in part on the second security key establishment information. The processor may provide the first security key to the communication layer for protecting messages from the first application software to the second computing device.
