Distributed systems and fault tolerance

CDMA 1x evolution–data optimized (1x EV-DO) is defined in the TIA/EIA IS-856 and IS-835 standards. The security of 1x EV-DO offers authentication, integrity, and encryption capabilities. 1x EV-DO supports authentication of the access terminal (AT) to authorize access to the wireless network, as well as authentication of a subscription to authorize access to the Internet Protocol (IP) network. The system also provides session security via re-authenticating the AT during a session to prevent 1x EV-DO session hijacking and to protect integrity of the user packets. This paper will outline security threats to the 1x EV-DO system, security algorithms, authentication and authorization procedures, and ciphering procedures. The 1x EV-DO security will be detailed here for key exchange, authentication, and encryption functions by supporting the following protocols: security protocol, key exchange protocol, authentication protocol, and encryption protocol. Finally, a summary of 1x EV-DO security evolution will be presented © 2007 Alcatel-Lucent.
