(e.g., "MOM") to the stored alphanumeric speed dialing
codes (e.g., "MOM, "D", "BILL", "GB", "HOLLY") and if there
is a match then enabling a connection between the calling
party and a called party (e.g., mother of the calling

Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting the identities of mobile devices on
a wireless network are described. A proxy gateway couples the wireless network
to a wired network and maintains data associating a set of service initiators with
a set of cryptographic keys. Upon receiving a request from a mobile client device
directed to an origin server on the wired network, the proxy gateway identifies
the cryptographic key for that origin server and sends to the origin server a
proxy request. The proxy request includes an identifier of the mobile device,
encrypted using the cryptographic key. When the proxy gateway receives a
request from a service initiator on the wired network to push information to a
mobile device, it uses the cryptographic key for that service initiator to decode a
client identifier in the request and thereby determine whether the request is
valid.
