A control plane function receives subscription information indicating that a wireless device subscribes to a service. The control plane function receives, from an authorization server, an authorization for the service of the wireless device. The control plane function sends, to a base station, one or more messages indicating an activation of one or more radio access network functions related to the service of the wireless device, based on the subscription information indicating that the wireless device subscribes to the service and the service being authorized.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for securely verifying devices such as protected are provided. A code may be generated for a first device. A short message service (SMS) message comprising the code may be transmitted to the first device at a mobile directory number of the first device. An entry may be created to associate the code with the mobile directory number. A determination may be made as to whether a first code within a message associated with the mobile directory number matches the code within the entry. In response to a match, the message may be processed and a status of the first device may be marked as valid, otherwise, the message may be rejected.

A method of providing an electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile to a wireless communication device. The method comprises receiving an eSIM profile provisioning request by a subscription manager-data preparation+ (SM-DP+) server, wherein the provisioning request comprises an embedded UICC identifier (EID) number, a private identity code, and wireless communication service subscription information; building an eSIM profile package by the SM-DP+ server based in part on the wireless communication service subscription information, wherein the eSIM profile package comprises an eSIM profile, the EID number, and the private identity code; sending a notification of the availability of the eSIM profile by the SM-DP+ server to a subscription manager-discovery server (SM-DS server), wherein the notification comprises the EID number and the private identity code; and transmitting the eSIM profile package by the SM-DP+ server to the wireless communication device.

Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented, in whole or in part, using one or more computing devices to obtain, from a communications device, an identifier of the communications device transmitted via a communications network. The communications network may transmit a request for one or more parameters unique to a subscriber of the communications network. The method may also include processing signals indicative of the requested one or more parameters in response to the subscriber entering the one or more parameters into a graphical user interface of the communications device. The method may further include transmitting, to the communications device, one or more signals to provide a complement of subscriber parameters.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving, from a computing device, a validation request for validating an individual associated with a mobile device equipped with an authentication app communicatively coupled with an authentication system, obtaining request data from a user validation system, enabling, using the request data, the computing device to communicate with the user validation system to facilitate the validation, wherein the validation involves the user validation system triggering the authentication system to provide access information to the computing device, the authentication system authenticating the individual/mobile device, the authentication system providing, to the user validation system, identification information of the individual based on the authenticating, and the user validation system determining a validation result based on data relating to the identification information. Aspects also include obtaining the validation result from the user validation system and causing the validation result to be presented. Other embodiments are disclosed.
