    Abstract: In embodiments of systems and methods for synchronous content presentation, a user equipment (UE) may generate a freshness parameter, generate a unique session key based on a first session key and the freshness parameter, and send the freshness parameter to a Network Application Function (NAF) of a network device in a configuration that will enable the NAF to generate the unique session key. The network device may receive the freshness parameter, receive from a Key Server Function (KSF) the first session key, and generate based on the freshness parameter and the first session key the unique session key. The UE and the network device may then conduct secure communications using the unique session key without exchanging the unique session key between the two devices.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for performing wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may perform operations including generating, at a user equipment (UE), a message including information associated with positioning-reference signaling. The operations may include obtaining: a group identifier, a group key, and a group-key identifier. The operations may include deriving a traffic key based on the group key and the group identifier. The operations may include deriving an encryption key and an integrity key based on the traffic key. The operations may include generating a message header including the group identifier and the group-key identifier. The operations may include calculating a message-authentication code (MAC) using the integrity key, the message, and the message header. The operations may include encrypting the message and the MAC using the encryption key. The operations may include transmitting the message header, the encrypted message, and the encrypted MAC.

    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: Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable storage medium for encrypting discovery messages are provided. An example method at a first UE may include obtaining a discovery message that is ciphered based on at least one of a ciphering key, a ciphering algorithm, or a first set of time parameters, where the discovery message is scrambled based on at least one of a scrambling key, a scrambling algorithm, or a second set of time parameters. An example method may also include descrambling the discovery message based on at least one of the scrambling key, the scrambling algorithm, or the second set of time parameters. An example method may also include deciphering the discovery message based on at least one of the ciphering key, the ciphering algorithm, or the first set of time parameters.

    Abstract: A first network node may transmit, to a second network node, first information associated with granular user consent control. The first information may be further associated with a data processing task and a UE. The second network node may receive, from the first network node or the UE, second information associated with the granular user consent control. The second information may be further associated with the data processing task and the UE. The second network node may identify a user consent result associated with the data processing task and a user of the UE based on the granular user consent control. The user consent result may be further based on the first information or the second information. The second network node may transmit, to the first network node, the user consent result. Thereafter, the first network node may handle the data processing task based on the user consent result.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first wireless communication device (WCD) may initiate, based at least in part on a determination to participate in user-equipment-to-user-equipment (U2U) relay communication, a discovery procedure to discover one or more of access to a second WCD or services provided by the second WCD, the second WCD being accessible via a third WCD. The WCD may communicate, for example U2U communications, with the second WCD via the third WCD based at least in part on the discovery procedure. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: In embodiment methods for supporting pre-shared key (PSK) renegotiation, a user equipment (UE) may generate a request message including a first bootstrapping transaction identifier (B-TID), a first PSK namespace identifying a first bootstrapping procedure supported by the UE, and a first correlated PSK namespace indicating PSK renegotiation is supported by the UE for the first bootstrapping procedure, and send the request message to a network device. The network device may determine an indication of a PSK renegotiation for the first correlated PSK namespace in response to determining PSK renegotiation is required for the UE, generate a response message including the indication of the PSK renegotiation for the first correlated PSK namespace, and send the response message to the UE. In response, the UE may perform a bootstrapping procedure to obtain a second B-TID and second (i.e., new) session key (Ks).
