Abstract:
A user equipment with a primary identifier and a secondary identifier. The user equipment comprises a witness application stored in the memory, that when executed by the processor in a trusted security zone, wherein the trusted security zone provides hardware assisted trust, transmits a message comprising the logs of the communication service consumption to a server in a network of a service provider associated with the user equipment using a trusted end-to-end communication channel, wherein the logs are translated by the server to a format compatible with a billing data store supported by a billing server, wherein the translated logs are transmitted to the billing data store, whereby a bill is created for each of the primary identifier and the secondary identifier by the billing server accessing the billing data store.
