name: AKMA
full_form: Authentication and Key Management for Applications
context: 3GPP has not specified interfaces within the UE, except for the interface between the ME and UICC, which is a multivendor interface. Similarly, the interface between the AKMA bootstrapping client and AKMA apps could be seen as a multivendor interface as the developers of AKMA apps are assumed to be different from ME vendors. Having such standardized API for requesting AKMA keys in the UE would mean less design effort for application developers as it would introduce multivendor interoperability also in the UE side. Thereby making AKMA more attractive for applications to use AKMA. Solutions to this Key Issue should study the following aspects: - How an API between an AKMA bootstrapping client and AKMA app could look like? - What parameters are sent between the AKMA bootstrapping client and AKMA app? - If and how does the AKMA bootstrapping client ensure that only authorized AKMA apps receive keys? - If and how could considerations in TR 33.905 be useful in relation to this Key Issue?
description: AKMA (Authentication and Key Management for Applications) is a protocol used for authentication and key management within the UE, enabling secure communication between applications and the network.
explanation: The context describes AKMA as a mechanism for managing keys and authenticating applications within the UE, which aligns with the definition of a Protocol in the telecommunications domain. The focus on standardized API, parameters exchange, and authorization processes further supports this classification.
