“…Frequent mobility of users in their visiting networks is out of the scope of this work. However, in case (i) when the users belong to different geographical regions, their authentication will be achieved using the process discussed in the EasySMS protocol [16], and (ii) when the user moves to a visiting network, the authentication is completed by the process mentioned in SAKA [36], ES-AKA [39], and IoT-enabled LTE AKA [55], respectively, in 2G, 3G, and 4G networks. The additional communication overhead in BAS-VAS will include routing transmitted information from the Visiting-AS to the Home-AS.…”

“…The authors proposed an advanced Identity Management scheme, called AIM, in order to guarantee mutual authentication, privacy, and tracking avoidance for 4G networks. According to Saxena et al [69], the EPS-AKA protocol of the LTE network does not support Internet of Things (IoT). Specifically, the authors proposed an authentication protocol for an IoT-Enabled LTE Network that is entirely based on the symmetric key cryptosystem.…”

Abstract-This paper presents a comprehensive survey of existing authentication and privacy-preserving schemes for 4G and 5G cellular networks. We start by providing an overview of existing surveys that deal with 4G and 5G communications, applications, standardization, and security. Then, we give a classification of threat models in 4G and 5G cellular networks in four categories, including, attacks against privacy, attacks against integrity, attacks against availability, and attacks against authentication. We also provide a classification of countermeasures into three types of categories, including, cryptography methods, humans factors, and intrusion detection methods. The countermeasures and informal and formal security analysis techniques used by the authentication and privacy preserving schemes are summarized in form of tables. Based on the categorization of the authentication and privacy models, we classify these schemes in seven types, including, handover authentication with privacy, mutual authentication with privacy, RFID authentication with privacy, deniable authentication with privacy, authentication with mutual anonymity, authentication and key agreement with privacy, and three-factor authentication with privacy. In addition, we provide a taxonomy and comparison of authentication and privacypreserving schemes for 4G and 5G cellular networks in form of tables. Based on the current survey, several recommendations for further research are discussed at the end of this paper.

“…Our analysis of the key hierarchy reveals that the existing LTE networks are prone to compromise due to weak key management. This LTE-K based vulnerability is coined as a single key problem [14,15]. So far, there are no sufficient solutions towards LTE security vulnerabilities.…”

“…Once the source key (LTE-K) is compromised [11], the whole key hierarchy becomes vulnerable as LTE-K is the seed for subsequent key derivatives. This LTE-K based vulnerability is coined as a single key problem in [14,15].…”

 Abstract-Growing popularity of multimedia applications, pervasive connectivity, higher bandwidth, and euphoric technology penetration among bulk of the human race that happens to be cellular technology users, has fueled the adaptation to Long Term Evolution (LTE)/ System Architecture Evolution (SAE). The LTE fulfills the resource demands of the next generation applications for now. We identify security issues in authentication mechanism used in LTE that without countermeasures might give super user rights to unauthorized users. The LTE uses static LTE Key (LTE-K) to derive the entire key hierarchy, i.e., LTE follows Evolved Packet System -Authentication and Key Agreement (EPS-AKA) based authentication, which discloses user identity, location, and other Personally Identifiable Information (PII). To counter this, we propose a public key cryptosystem named "International mobile subscriber identity Protected Console Grid based Authentication and Key Agreement (IPG-AKA) protocol" to address the vulnerabilities related to weak key management. From the data obtained from threat modeling and simulation results, we claim that the IPG-AKA scheme not only improves security of authentication procedures, it also shows improvements in authentication loads and reduction in key generation time. The empirical results and qualitative analysis presented in this paper proves that IPG-AKA improves security in authentication procedure and performance in the LTE.
