ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are presented for providing local authentication of subscribers travelling outside their home systems. A subscriber identification token230provides authentication support by generating a signature370based upon a key that is held secret from a mobile unit220. A mobile unit220that is programmed to wrongfully retain keys from a subscriber identification token230after a subscriber has removed his or her token is prevented from subsequently accessing the subscriber's account.
