Description:

Cellular Authentication for Mobile and Internet Services introduces the reader to the field of secure communication for mobile application. An invaluable reference detailing the generic bootstrapping architecture (GBA), its usage, integration into existing networks, and infrastructure, the book explains the new, recently standardized approach to application security and outlines the reasons and motivation that led to its creation. This book also: Brings together in one volume information on standards that are currently scattered across the different standardization bodies. Describes various business scenarios and related security solutions. Describes the usage of the generic authentication…
