WIRELESS DEVICE AND NETWORK NODE FOR VERIFICATION OF A DEVICE AS WELL AS CORRESPONDING METHODS IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

The present invention relates to a method and wireless device for supporting verification of a device as well as to a method and a network node. It is desired to enable the reliable verification of a device. The method at the device includes transmitting the wireless device identifier; calculating verification information from a random bit sequence by using a verification function associated with the wireless device identifier, wherein the verification function uses the cryptographic key; transmitting a message including the verification information to a trusted network node over a secure connection; and wherein the secure connection is established by using a trusted network identifier or by using a network encryption key associated with a trusted network identifier.
