9.11.3.34 NAS security algorithms

Taught in 4. Inside TS 24.501, the document at the centre (CT1 — the group that writes what your phone says, overview).

The purpose of the NAS security algorithms information element is to indicate the 5G algorithms to be used for ciphering and integrity protection.

The NAS security algorithms information element is coded as shown in figure 9.11.3.34.1 and table 9.11.3.34.1.

The NAS security algorithms is a type 3 information element with a length of 2 octets.
