The security is an important issue in the mobile communications such as LTE/SAE systems, especially the mobile users' authentication and key production process which includes the most important risks. In this paper, we survey and compare authentication and key production solutions, namely the traditional solution EPS-AKA (Evolved Packet Switching -Authentication and key Agreement) which we consider as a benchmark solution and the J-PAKE (Password authenticated Key Exchange by Juggling) mechanism, included in the 4G networks by Cristina-Elena Vintilă et al., which have many advantages such as off-line and on-line dictionary attacks resistance, forward secrecy and Known-key security, so that we can show the strengths and weakness of these solutions.

Security is increasingly demanding in mobile communication, especially LTE, and the incremental value of transmitted assets over wireless networks pushes risk way above acceptable thresholds. Decision is continuously moving towards the user side, while the need for seamless security is becoming a must. Under all these requirements, 3GPP failed to propose a new Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol that solves the vulnerabilities found in the current AKA, and implement user preferences in network selection, thus 3GPP failed to meet LTE's current security needs. This paper proposes a complete AKA protocol that solve four different LTE-AKA weaknesses. The proposed protocol is backward compatible, needs no additional investment and achieves great QoS performance.

Abstract-Handover process execution without active session termination is considered one of the most important attribute in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. Unfortunately, this service always is suffered from the growing of security threats. In the Inter-eNB handover, an attacker may exploit these threats to violate the user privacy and desynchronize the handover entities. Therefore, the authentication is the main challenge in such issue. This paper proposes a synchronous authentication scheme to enhance the security level of key management during Inter-eNB handover process in LTE networks. The security analysis proves that the proposed scheme is secure against the current security drawbacks with perfect backward/forward secrecy. Furthermore, the performance analysis in terms of operations cost of authentication and bandwidth overhead demonstrates that the proposed scheme achieves high level of security with desirable efficiency.
