TECHNIQUES FOR MANAGING SECURITY MODE COMMAND (SMC) INTEGRITY FAILURES AT A USER EQUIPMENT (UE)

摘要

The present disclosure describes a method and an apparatus for managing security mode command (SMC) integrity failures at a user equipment (UE). For example, a method is provided for managing SMC integrity failures which receives a SMC message at the UE from a network entity. A message authentication code for data integrity (MAC-I) failure based at least on a mismatch of a security parameter at the UE may be detected at the UE. Moreover, a corrective action may be performed at the UE in response to the detection of the MAC-I failure at the UE.

1. A method for managing security mode command (SMC) integrity failures at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving a SMC message at the UE from a network entity; detecting a message authentication code for data integrity (MAC-I) failure based at least on a mismatch of a security parameter at the UE; and performing a corrective action at the UE in response to detecting the MAC-I failure at the UE.
