    Ethical Hackers Demonstrates Exploitable Security Holes of GSM Networks in India





    GSM networks has a critical security breach, as White hats demonstrated the the vulnerability of the widely accepted mobile technology at Nullcon, the International Security Conference 2012, held at Goa.




    The white hats or the ethical hacker group Matrix Shell explained and showed the security holes of GSM technology deployed in India they also demonstrated a real hacking scenario using Vodafone GSM network in real time.
    The security experts of the team includes Akib Sayyed, Dipesh Goyel, Bipul Sahu and Nitin Agarwal. They said that anyone can impersonate another GSM mobile number by:
    1. using IMSI and making calls
    2. Possible threats include
    3. identity theft
    4. Huge mobile bills or no balance of the victims
    5. An attacker can create a grid of such hardware and can empty the phone balance of each
    subscriber in just less than 3 hrs.
    6.The attacker can give misleading information by using some government employee’s identity or even use some law enforcement personsonal’s identity.
    Chances of catching the attacker
    There are very less chances to catch the attackers as he/she can change the imei,imeisv. The attacker can also spoof location by saying that his location is at 70 km away from the GSM base station even though he/she is sitting very near to the same GSM base station.
    No encryption on Air Interface
    Standard encryption on GSM should be a5/1 but in India the providers mostly use a5/0 I.e. no encryption. In this scenario the attacker can use some open source software to sniff the communication from air and can listen to the calls easily.
    The reasons as we suspect why these GSM configuration issues exist in the telecom networks
    It takes less time to setup session between mobile phone and BTS if no encryption is used also less load on the systems.
    It might be that the operators are forced to do this due to huge air traffic on GSM networks and implementing such techniques will cost them in terms of hardware upgrade to bear the load or some addon hardware in same area to serve the same no. of subscribers.
    There are certain security norms decided by governing body of GSM to stop these kind of attacks but many operators ignore them for whatever reasons.

    India gets its first 4G LTE network, courtesy of Bharti Airtel




    India is about to join the list of countries with fully operational 4G LTE networks. And the company responsible for this is Bharti Airtel, which also happens to be the fifth largest carrier in the world by number of subscribers.

    Kolkata, a large metropolitan area in Eastern India, is the first area to be blessed with 4G LTE service. It will be followed by Karnataka, Punjab and other parts of India in Q3 of this year.

    Since 4G-enabled smartphones aren’t yet available in India, the Bharti Airtel LTE network will be initially only be used with 4G USB dongles, which will enable connecting your laptop or tablet to the fast network. Manufactured by ZTE, the 4G dongle will be priced at 7,999INR ($155), which seems rather steep, though.

    If, however, you still want to use 4G on your smartphone, you’ll have to wait until the end of 2012 when some LTE-enabled devices like HTC Evo 4G, Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket and HTC Sensation 4G will be hitting the Indian market.
