Abstract

A method and an apparatus for providing Machine-to-Machine (M2M) service are provided. A method of providing service by an M2M device includes transmitting a request for service to a Network Security Capability (NSEC), the request for service comprising a identifier of a Device Service Capability Layer (DSCL) of the M2M device, performing an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication with an M2M Authentication Server (MAS) via the NSEC, and generating, if the EAP authentication is successful, a service key using a Master Session Key (MSK), a first constant string, and the identifier of the DSCL.
