A method, system and apparatus for protecting a bootstrapping service function (BSF) entity from attack includes: obtaining a first temporary identity and a second temporary identity after a user equipment (UE) performing mutual authentication with the BSF entity, where the first temporary identity is different from the second temporary identity; by the UE, originating a re-authentication request to the BSF entity through the first temporary identity; and originating a service request to a NAF entity through the second temporary identity. The present disclosure prevents attackers from intercepting the temporary identity at the Ua interface and using the temporary identity to originate a re-authentication request at the Ub interface, thus protecting the BSF entity from attack and avoiding unnecessary load on the BSF entity and saving resources.
