LTE Security

Beschreibung

Addressing the security solutions for LTE, a cellular technologyfrom Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), this book showshow LTE security substantially extends GSM and 3G security. It alsoencompasses the architectural aspects, known as SAE, to give acomprehensive resource on the topic. Although the security forSAE/LTE evolved from the security for GSM and 3G, due to differentarchitectural and business requirements of fourth generationsystems the SAE/LTE security architecture is substantiallydifferent from its predecessors. This book presents in detail thesecurity mechanisms employed to meet these requirements. Whilst the industry standards inform how to implement systems,they do not provide readers with the underlying principles behindsecurity specifications. LTE Security fills this gap byproviding first hand information from 3GPP insiders who explain therationale for design decisions. Key features: * Provides a concise guide to the 3GPP/LTE SecurityStandardization specifications * Authors are leading experts who participated in decisivelyshaping SAE/LTE security in the relevant standardization body,3GPP * Shows how GSM and 3G security was enhanced and extended to meetthe requirements of fourth generation systems * Gives the rationale behind the standards specificationsenabling readers to have a broader understanding of the context ofthese specifications * Explains why LTE security solutions are designed as they areand how theoretical security mechanisms can be put to practicaluse
