Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method and an apparatus for security algorithm selection processing, a network entity, and a communication system. The method includes: receiving a service request message sent by user equipment; and according to a security protection requirement of the service request message, selecting a security algorithm from a security algorithm list supported by both the user equipment and a network entity, where security algorithm lists supported by the user equipment and/or the network entity are set separately based on different security protection requirements, or security algorithm lists supported by the user equipment and the network entity are used for indicating security capability of the user equipment and the network entity respectively.
