HeartBleed OpenSSL Bug

The OpenSSL cryptographic software library have a serious vulnerability called HeartBleed. This vulnerability cause the internet connection insecure because it was using the SSL/TLS encryption, the information can be easily stoled by thirds party. Almost all internet application of the security communication and privacy over the internet is using SSL/TLS. This weakeness will cause the application like web, email, instant messaging,and some Virtual Private networks being compromise. Heartbleed bug is allows anyone on the internet to read the memory of the systems protected by the vulnerable version of the OpenSSL software. This cause the secret keys that identify the services providers and to encrypt the traffic, important information like names, passwords of the users and it content being compromises. Hackers able to eavesdrop on communications, steal data directly from the services and users and to impersonate services and users. What leaks in practice? We have tested some of...

Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS)

In 1988, the European Community (CEC) began a "European Advanced Communications Research (RACE)" development plan by the European 26 research units jointly develop a new generation of mobile communication systems. Called "Universal Mobile Telecommunications System", referred to UMTS, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) is responsible for UMTS standardization work, and with the ITU is responsible for third-generation mobile communication system IMT-2000 standardization work coordinated. Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems is also known as 3G, a Third Generation Broadband which based on GSM standard. UMTS is use Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access to provide a efficient and bandwidth to mobile network operators. UM TS as a complete 3G mobile communication technology standards, UMTS air interface is not limited to the definition. In addition to WCDMA air interface technology as the preferred access to constantly improve the outsid...

Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM)

Originally the GSM is stand for Groupe Spécial Mobile. Global Systems for Mobile communication is an international standard which are the only type of cellular service available in Europa and also others parts of the world. GSM is a leading digital cellular systems, it was introduce to replace the First generation (1G) analog cellular networks. It use narrowband Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) which allows 8 simultaneous calls on the same radio frequency. Europe and Asia is using 900MHz band to operate and United States is operate the GSM in 1900MHz. The growth of GSM make the acronym is changing to Global System for Mobile Communications. Features of GSM: • Encryption that make phone calls more secure • Data networking • Group III facsimile Services • Short Message Service (SMS) • Call forwarding • Caller Id • Call waiting • Multi-party conferencing History of GSM • 1982, Conference of European Post and Telegraphs (CEPT) formed a group call GSM to res...
