Today we dare to (mis-) use the blog for a shameless self promotion 😉
We’re happy to announce that ERNW will contribute to a government sponsored research project called ASMONIA (which stands for the German title of the project that is Angriffsanalyse und Schutzkonzepte für MObilfunkbasierte Netzinfrastrukturen unterstützt durch kooperativen InformationsAustausch [Attack analysis and Security concepts for MObile Network infrastructures, supported by collaborative Information exchAnge]. those readers familiar with that kind of projects will have an idea of the importance of such acronyms ;-).
Our input in the project will happen in the areas of threat and risk analysis in 4G mobile telecommunication networks and, of course, we will “carefully evaluate practical attacks” in some parts of those networks ;-).
We just got a bunch of devices to undergo some lab testing in the next months. And you might expect some presentations on results from the project, e.g. for ShmooCon we plan to file a talk on “Attacking and Securing Juniper Backbone Routers”.
Stay tuned & have a great day,
Enno
