Authenticated Wireless Roaming via Tunnels: Making Mobile Guests Feel at Home

Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Information, Computer and Communications Security (ASIACCS 2009) · 2009

Abstract

In wireless roaming a mobile device obtains a service from some foreign network while being registered for the similar service at its own home network. However, recent proposals try to keep the service provider role behind the home network and let the foreign network create a tunnel connection through which all service requests of the mobile device are sent and answered directly by the home network. Such wireless roaming via tunnels (WRT) offers several (security) benefits but states also new security challenges on authentication and key establishment, as the goal is not only to protect the end-to-end communication between the tunnel peers but also the tunnel itself.
