Abstract: A method is provided for securing a Signalling System No. 7 interface, SS7 interface, of a system, via which access to a local mobile radiocommunications network is carried out, in relation to an external system. The method protects the SS7 network access points of telecommunication providers from SS7/MAP attacks by detecting and filtering these attacks.

Abstract: A method and device to analyze the security of a mobile terminal having application and baseband processors are described. Various information may be acquired by baseband and application monitor applications running on the mobile device including, for example, information about transmission channels, protocol transmissions, and/or data transmission volumes. Information about power consumption may also be acquired. The monitor applications may also measure response times to service requests as well as monitor various aspects of running applications including status, time/duration, inputs or outputs, and/or inputs from a user via a User-Interface. Information may also be acquired about the configuration of the audio path to determine which component or application is using the microphone.
