US Patent 12096218 Security for network slicing in a communication system

A network provider implements network slicing. Each network slice instance is configured to provide a configured set of services that are associated with controlled access to a set of user devices. An access profile for a first user device is identified and analyzed. In response to determining that the access profile matches security capabilities of a configured set of services for one of the instantiated network instances, the first user device is enabled to securely access the matching instantiated network instance.
