Abstract:

Every 10 years, new cellular technology has been introduced. In particular, 4G LTE has brought all IP era together with high-speed data and voice service. All IP era, on the other hand, opens new opportunity for cellular security researchers, as it makes security analysis much easier. So far, researcher has found about 100 new security vulnerabilities in 4G LTE. In this talk, I will introduce these vulnerabilities and discuss what kind of new and old problems will be introduced in 5G. I will also introduce a simple mechanism to automatically detect part of these vulnerabilities.
