    Abstract: Techniques for detection of abnormal network function service usage in a communication network are disclosed. For example, a method comprises obtaining, at a first network entity, one or more service requests previously received by a second network entity for a service which the second network entity is configured to provide in a communication network. The method further comprises obtaining, at the first network entity, an analysis of the one or more service requests previously received by the second network entity for the service. The method further comprises obtaining, at the first network entity, an expected service usage for the service from the analysis of the one or more service requests. The method may then compare incoming service requests to the expected service usage to detect a given condition, e.g., an abnormal condition, so that at least one action can be taken.

    Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method comprising, determining, by an apparatus configured to operate as a network function a cellular communication system, at least two disjoint network paths, wherein the at least two disjoint network paths are different paths, and comprise different physical resources, transmitting, by the apparatus, a subscription request to an analytics function of the cellular communication system, to request notifications about attacks or risks of attacks on at least one network function on at least one of the at least two disjoint network paths, receiving from the analytics function, by the apparatus, information about at least one compromised network entity and/or at least one network entity having a risk of being compromised on said at least one of the at least two disjoint network paths and performing, by the apparatus, attack mitigation based on said information.

    Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus configured to function as a network function repository, and transmit to a network function consumer an access token authorizing access to a service provided by a network function producer, the access token comprising an at least one of: indication of a fully qualified domain name of the network function consumer, an indication of a domain from which access to the network function producer is allowed and an indication of a stand-alone non-public network from which access to the network function producer is allowed.
