This presentation provides an overview of GSM architecture. It discusses that GSM was developed to provide digital cellular voice and data services. The key components of GSM architecture include the mobile station (MS), base station subsystem (BSS) comprising base transceiver station (BTS) and base station controller (BSC), and the network switching subsystem (NSS) consisting of the mobile switching center (MSC), home location register (HLR), visitor location register (VLR), and authentication center (AUC). The presentation also outlines GSM services like teleservices, bearer services and supplementary services, and highlights security mechanisms and advantages of GSM over analog systems.

Universal mobile telecommunication System (UMTS) is actually the third generation mobile, which uses WCDMA. The Dream was that 2G and 2.5G systems are incompatible around the world.
-Worldwide devices need to have multiple technologies inside of them, i.e. tri-band phones, dual-mode phones
To develop a single standard that would be accepted around the world.
-One device should be able to work anywhere.
Increased data rate.
- Maximum 2048Kbps
UMTS is developed by 3GPP (3 Generation Partnership Project) a joint venture of several organization
3G UMTS is a third-generation (3G): broadband, packet-based transmission of text, digitized voice, video, multimedia at data rates up to 2 Mbps
Also referred to as wideband code division multiple access(WCDMA)
Allows many more applications to be introduce to a worldwide
Also provide new services like alternative billing methods or calling plans.
The higher bandwidth also enables video conferencing or IPTV.
Once UMTS is fully available, computer and phone users can be constantly attached to the Internet wherever they travel and, as they roam, will have the same set of capabilities.
Wireless communication is the transfer of information between two or more points that are not connected by an electrical conductor.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

4. What is GSM ?
Global System for Mobile (GSM) is a
second generation cellular standard
developed to cater voice services and data
delivery using digital modulation .
5. GSM: HISTORY
• Developed by Group Spéciale Mobile (founded 1982) which was
an initiative of CEPT ( Conference of European Post and
Telecommunication )
• Under ETSI, GSM is named as “ Global System for Mobile
communication “ in 1989
• Full set of specifications phase-I became available in 1990
• Phase 2 of the GSM specifications occurs in 1995. Coverage is
extended to rural areas
9. TELE SERVICES
• Telecommunication services that enable voice communication via
mobile phones
• Offered services
- Mobile telephony
- Emergency calling
10. BEARER SERVICES
• Include various data services for information transfer
between GSM and other networks like PSTN, ISDN etc
at rates from 300 to 9600 bps
• Short Message Service (SMS)
- up to 160 character alphanumeric data transmission
to/from the mobile terminal
• Voice mailbox
11. SUPPLEMENTARY SERVICES
Call related services :
• Call Waiting- Notification of an incoming call while on the handset
• Call Hold- Put a caller on hold to take another call
• Call Barring- All calls, outgoing calls, or incomingcalls
• Call Forwarding- Calls can be sent to various numbers defined by
the user
• Multi Party Call Conferencing - Link multiple calls together

14. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
MOBILE STATION (MS)
The Mobile Station is made up of two entities:
1. Mobile Equipment (ME)
2. Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)
15. MOBILE EQUIPMENT
Portable, vehicle mounted, hand held device
Uniquely identified by an IMEI (International Mobile
Equipment Identity)
Voice and data transmission
Monitoring power and signal quality of surrounding cells
for optimum handover
Power level : 0.8W – 20 W
160 character long SMS.
16. SUBSCRIBER IDENTITY MODULE(SIM)
Smart card contains the International Mobile Subscriber
Identity (IMSI)
Allows user to send and receive calls and receive other
subscribed services
Protected by a password or PIN
Can be moved from phone to phone – contains key
information to activate the phone
17. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
BASE STATION SUBSYSTEM (BSS)
Base Station Subsystem is composed of two parts that
communicate across the standardized Abis interface allowing
operation between components made by different suppliers
1. Base Transceiver Station (BTS)
2. Base Station Controller (BSC)
18. BASE TRANSCEIVER STATION (BTS):
Encodes, encrypts, multiplexes, modulates and feeds
the RF signals to the antenna.
Communicates with Mobile station and BSC
Consists of Transceivers (TRX) units
19. BASE STATION CONTROLLER (BSC)
Manages Radio resources for BTS
Assigns Frequency and time slots for all MS’s in its area
Handles call set up

It communicates with MSC and BTS
20. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
NETWORK SWITCHING
SUBSYSTEM(NSS)
The system contains the following functional units
Mobile Switching Center (MSC)
Home Location Register (HLR)
Visitor Location Register (VLR)

22. HOME LOCATION REGISTERS (HLR)
Stores information about each subscriber that belongs to it MSC in
permanent and temporary fashion.
As soon as mobile subscriber leaves its current local area, the
information in the HLR is updated.
database contains IMSI, MSISDN, prepaid/ postpaid, roaming
restrictions, supplementary services.
23. VISITOR LOCATION REGISTERS (VLR)
Temporary database which updates whenever new MS enters its
area, by HLR database
Assigns a TMSI to each MS entering the VLR area which keeps on
changing.
