A method for obtaining a secure key is provided. The method includes sending an Access Safety Management Entity Key (KASME) to a gateway after finishing authentication and security process by a Mobility Management Entity (MME) in a core network; and computing, by the gateway, a Next Hop (NH) according to the KASME. The method provides a method for ensuring a working of a secure key chain when a handover process is terminated at a Hybrid Evolved NodeB Gateway (HeNB GW). Thus, key information cannot be lost when the handover process is terminated at the HeNB GW, and an impact of the handover process on a core network is reduced, and the efficiency of a User Equipment (UE) handover is improved. |
