Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to secure store and forward non-terrestrial network communication. An apparatus, such as a user equipment (UE), transmits a registration request message to request a registration, the registration request message including an indication that the registration is via a store and forward (SF) access network. The UE receives a registration accept response message including an indication that a registration is provisional and a first authentication token, and computes a first authentication result based at least in part on the first authentication token. The UE can derive, based at least in part on information in the first authentication token, a first security context including one or more first provisional non access stratum (NAS) security keys. The security context can be used to securely transmit data such as via the SF access network.
