Protecting IMS Networks From
Attack
by Krishna Kurapati
Published September 2006; Posted December 2006
Abstract:
Application-level attacks and fuzzing are on the rise. Can IMS cope?
Just as the ecommerce companies have learned that they must go to great lengths
to protect their core servers from hackers, malware and service abuses, so too
must network operators who plan to offer Internet-based services using IMS (IP
Multimedia Subsystem) technologies.
Because the Internet is an “open” system, any user can freely connect to it at
any time from any place with little effort, making it a fertile breeding ground
for a wide variety of malicious and unauthorized activities. With both ecommerce
and IMS, security is a necessary requirement, as any down time of the site or
service means lost revenue for the company.
