<p>A method and a device for key generation are disclosed in embodiments of the present invention. The method for key generation is applied to a UMTS-LTE resource convergence scenario that has a base station as an anchor point, and includes: deriving, according to a root key and a count value of an LTE system, or according to a random number and an LTE system root key, a UMTS integrity key and cipher key, and sending the UMTS integrity key and cipher key to a UMTS control node, so that the UMTS control node implements cipher and integrity protection by using the UMTS integrity key and cipher key. The embodiments of the present invention enable the derivation of the UMTS integrity key and cipher key in a UMTS-LTE resource convergence scenario that has a base station as an anchor point, enable a user equipment to communicate securely through a UMTS, and further improve security of data transmitted in the UMTS.</p> |
