8. An edge configuration server (ECS) in an edge computing system comprising:
a memory; and
a controller coupled to the memory configured to:
receive, from a user equipment (UE), a provisioning request message including an identifier (ID) of an authentication and key management for applications (AKMA) key,
obtain an edge configuration server specific key (KECS) by contacting an entity corresponding to an AKMA anchor function (AAnF) based on the ID of the AKMA key,
derive a pre-shared key (PSK) based on the edge configuration server specific key (KECS), and
perform, with the UE, an establishment procedure of a transport layer security (TLS) session with the PSK based on authentication for mutual authentication.
