The document discusses private and public user identities in 3GPP systems. Private user identities uniquely identify a subscription and are permanently allocated. They are stored and used for authentication during registration. If there is no ISIM application, the private identity can be derived from the IMSI. Public user identities are provisioned and stored separately, are not authenticated during registration, and can be shared across multiple private identities within a subscription. Service profiles associated with public identities are stored in the HSS and define the services available to a user.

Efficient and Secure Single Sign on Mechanism for Distributed NetworkIJERA Editor
Distributed network act as core part to access the various services which are available in the network. But the security related to distributed network is main concern. In this paper single sign-on SSO mechanism is introduced which gives access to all services by allowing to sign on only once by users. In this mechanism once user logs in to the Trusted Authority Center TAC then application or services which are register to trusted center will automatically verifies the user’s credentials details and these credentials like password or digital signature will be only one for all applications or services. Unlike all other previous mechanisms where in, if user wants to have access multiple services then for every service distinct user credentials (username, password) must be required. SSO act as single authentication window to user for admittance multiple service providers in networks. Previously introduced technique based SSO technology proved to be secure over well-designed SSO system, but fails to provide security during communication. So here emphasis is given on authentication as open problem and on to refining the already proposed SSO process. And to do this along with RSA algorithm which was used in previous SSO process, we will be using MAC algorithm, which is intended to provide secured pathway for communication over distributed network.TAC i.e. Trusted Authority Center is used for sending token integrated with private and shared public key to user.

Certification Authority Monitored Multilevel and Stateful Policy Based Author...CSCJournals
Services oriented grids will be more prominent among other kinds of grids in the present distributed environments. With the advent of online government services the governmental grids will come up in huge numbers. Apart from common security issues as in other grids, the authorization in service oriented grids faces certain shortcomings and needs to be looked upon differently. The CMMS model presented here overcomes all these shortcomings and adds to the simplicity of implementation because of its tight similarities with certain government services and their functioning. The model is used to prototype a State Police Information Grid (SPIG). Small technological restructuring is required in PKIX and X.509 certificates.
Advanced mechanism for single sign on for distributed computer networkseSAT Journals
Abstract A distributed computer networks could be a special form of the network that facilitates the purchasers to use completely different network services that is provided by the service suppliers. Within the distributed computer networks, user verification is a crucial method for the protection. Within the verification, the choice is taken whether the user is legal or not and then enabled the users to access the service. In general users are using multiple usernames and passwords for to access different applications on a distributed computer network. This increase the burden of the user and organization administrator as each and every account of the organization is going to be handled with their explicit username and credential. A new certification plan that is named as single sign-on mechanism that facilitates the users with one identity token to be verified by multiple service suppliers. Single sign-on is one of user authentication method that allows a user to enter one name and identity token so as to access multiple applications. The method authenticates the user for all the applications they have been offered access to and eliminates additional prompts after they switch applications throughout a specific session. However, existing approaches which are utilizing single sign-on scheme have some drawbacks relating to security needs. Thus, through this paper, we will discuss regarding the event of security from earlier stage to present stage. And clearly discuss regarding the authentication steps between user and service supplier. Keywords — single sign-on, authentication token , mutual authentication

Augmenting Publish/Subscribe System by Identity Based Encryption (IBE) Techni...IJCERT JOURNAL
Security is one of the extensive and complicated requirements that need to be provided in order to achieve few issues like confidentiality, integrity and authentication. In a content-based publish/subscribe system, authentication is difficult to achieve since there exists no strong bonding between the end parties. Similarly, Integrity and confidentiality needs arise in published events and subscription conflicts with content-based routing. The basic tool to support confidentiality, integrity is encryption. In this paper for providing security mechanism in broker-less content-based publish/subscribe system we adapt pairing-based cryptography mechanism. In this mechanism, we use Identity Based Encryption (IBE) technique to achieve the needs of publish/subscribe system. This approach helps in providing fine-grained key management, effective encryption, decryption operations and routing is carried out in the order of subscribed attributes

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

• The Private User Identity shall be permanently allocated to a user's subscription (it is not a
dynamic identity), and is valid for the duration of the user's subscription with the home
network.
• The Private User Identity is used to identify the user's information (for example
authentication information) stored within the HSS (for use for example during Registration).
• The Private User Identity may be present in charging records based on operator policies.
• The Private User Identity is authenticated only during registration of the user, (including re-
registration and de-registration).
Source: RFC 4282
• nai = username
• nai =/ "@" realm
• nai =/ username "@" realm
• realm = domain
• =/ means Incremental Alternatives
Source: TS23.003
• It is possible for a representation of the IMSI to be contained within the NAI for the private
identity.
• For 3GPP systems, if there is no ISIM application, the private user identity is not known. If the
private user identity is not known, the private user identity shall be derived from the IMSI.
The following steps show how to build the private user identity out of the IMSI:
1. Use the whole string of digits as the username part of the private user identity; and
2. Convert the leading digits of the IMSI, i.e. MNC and MCC, into a domain name, as
described in subclause 13.2.
• The result will be a private user identity of the form
"<IMSI>@ims.mnc<MNC>.mcc<MCC>.3gppnetwork.org". For example: If the IMSI is
234150999999999 (MCC = 234, MNC = 15), the private user identity then takes the form
"234150999999999@ims.mnc015.mcc234.3gppnetwork.org".
3
4. The Public User Identity shall take the form as defined in TS 23.003 [24].
Public User Identities are not authenticated by the network during registration.
Public User Identities are stored in the HSS. A distinct Public User Identity
contains the Public User Identity that is used in routing and it is explicitly
provisioned in the HSS.
4
5. Only one service profile shall be associated with a Public User Identity at the
S-CSCF at a given time. Multiple service profiles may be defined in the HSS for a
subscription. Each Public User Identity is associated with one and only one
service profile. Each service profile is associated with one or more Public User
Identities.
Public User Identities with different Service Profiles may belong to the same
Implicit Registration Set.
The IMS Service Profile is a collection of service and user related data. The IMS
service profile is defined and maintained in the HSS and its scope is limited to IM
CN Subsystem. The service profile is downloaded from the HSS to the S-CSCF.
5
6. Public User Identities may be shared across multiple Private User Identities
within the same IMS subscription. Hence, a particular Public User Identity may be
simultaneously registered from multiple UEs that use different Private User
Identities and different contact addresses.
All Service Profiles of a user shall be stored in the same HSS, even if the user has
one or more shared Public User Identities.
