Abstract

A first network node operating in a telecommunications network can receive an authentication request associated with a communication device requesting registration with the telecommunications network. The authentication request can include first subscriber information. The first network node can determine that the first subscriber information includes an anonymous identifier. Responsive to determining that the first subscriber information includes the anonymous identifier, the network node can determine an authentication procedure to be performed. The network node can receive information associated with the communication device as part of the authentication procedure. The network node can generate second subscriber information based on the information associated with the communication device.
