“…It has been concluded in [2] that the VHO non-security based category takes a large portion of previous works (93%) compared with the VHO security based category (7%). Where, the majority works of this modest percentage of VHO security based category have mainly focused on the role of security parameter in selecting the best available RAT [3].…”

One of the most important concepts in the heterogeneous mobile networks is Vertical Handover (VHO). The VHO is a vital process taken place by Mobile Users (MUs) in order to satisfy their preferences of security and cost, in addition to the rest of parameters of network and terminal such as latency and velocity, respectively. However, a proactive security for upcoming sensitive connection and performing VHO between heterogeneous mobile networks have not been considered. This paper therefore comes up with a new secure algorithm to address this issue: Proactive Security for Upcoming Sensitive Connection (PSUSC). Analysis of the PSUSC algorithm proves reducing potential attacks extremely compared with previous works which rely on using less secure RAT.

The Vertical Handover (VHO) is one of the most vital features provided for the heterogeneous mobile networks. It allows Mobile Users (MUs) to keep ongoing sessions without disruption while they continuously move between different Radio Access Technologies (RATs) such as Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS), Long Term Evolution (LTE) and Fifth Generation (5G). In order to fulfill this goal, the VHO must comply to three main phases: starting of collecting the required information and then passing it for decision phase to obtain the best available RAT for performing VHO by execution phase eventually. However, the execution phase still encounters some security issues which are exploited by hackers in launching malicious attacks such as ransomware, fragmentation, header manipulation, smurf, host initialization, reconnaissance, eavesdropping, Denial of Service (DoS), spoofing, Man in the Middle (MITM) and falsification. This paper thoroughly studies the recent security issues for hundreds VHO approaches found in the literature and comes up with a secure procedure to enhance VHO security during execution phase. A numerical analysis results of the proposed procedure are effectively evaluated in terms of security and signaling cost. Compared with the recent related work found in literature, the analysis demonstrates that the security is successfully improved by 20% whereas signaling cost is maintained as in non-proposed procedure.
