Exploration of GSM and UMTS Security Architecture with Aka Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the expansion of mobile communication network, incredible changes are taking place in the field of mobile technologies, as requirements are increasing day by day for mobile data services along with them security concerns are also expanding. This paper focuses on the architecture of GSM and UMTS along with Authentication and Key Agreement protocol description, which shows the encryption process used in the authentication of the network and the client over the air interface. In addition, this paper also gives an introduction to some concepts of UMTS security architecture.

UMTS security: system architecture and hardware implementation
Universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS) has specified security mechanisms with extra features compared to the security mechanisms of previous mobile communication systems (GSM, DECT). A hardware implementation of the UMTS security mechanism is presented in this paper. The proposed VLSI system supports the Authentication and Key Agreement procedure (AKA), the data confidentiality proced...

متن کاملArkko and Haverinen Expires in Six Months [page 1] Eap Aka Authentication
This document specifies an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) mechanism for authentication and session key distribution using the UMTS AKA authentication mechanism. AKA is based on symmetric keys, and runs typically in a UMTS Subscriber Identity Module, a smart card like device. AKA provides also backward compatibility to GSM authentication, making it possible to use EAP AKA for authentic...
متن کاملPrivate Identification, Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol with Security Mode Setup
Identification, authentication and key agreement protocol of UMTS networks with security mode setup has some weaknesses in the case of mutual freshness of key agreement, DoS-attack resistance, and efficient bandwidth consumption. In this paper, we investigate UMTS AKA and some other proposed schemes. Then, we explore the known weaknesses of the previous frameworks suggested for the UMTS AKA pro...
