Adrian Dabrowski – Towards Carrier Based IMSI Catcher Detection
An IMSI Catchers, also known as Stingrays or rogue cells, are readily available
as commercial products as well as do-it-yourself projects running open-source
software, and are obtained and used by law enforcement agencies and criminals
alike. In this presentation we discuss multiple detection capabilities from the
network operator’s point of view. We draw a comprehensive picture on current
threats against mobile phone devices and networks, including 2G, 3G and 4G IMSI
Catchers and present detection and mitigation strategies under the unique
large-scale circumstances of a real European carrier. One of the major
challenges from the operator’s point of view is the fact that cellular networks
were specifically designed to reduce global signaling traffic, and manage as
many transactions regionally as possible. Unlike popular belief, a network
operator does not have a global view of its network by default.
See you soon!
