| Abstract |
|
Traditionally, the authentication protocols for
cellular phone networks have been designed for device
authentication rather than user authentication, which
brings certain limitations and restrictions on the
functionality of the system. In this paper we propose a
user authentication protocol for the Global Standards
for Mobile (GSM) which permits the use of weak
secrets (e.g. passwords or PINs) for authentication,
providing new flexibilities for the GSM users.
