Abstract
Using protocol cause codes, a mobile telecommunications network (10) may be pre-configured with a rule set (63) to report the results of the cause codes to an automated security event processing system (50) for security event detection and containment. The cause code information sent from the network nodes (30, 40) to the automated security event processing system will allow for security event correlation across network nodes for the determination and resolution of security breaches.
Claims20
In a network, a network security arrangement comprising:
- a mobile device requesting connection to the network;
- at least one network node for coupling to the mobile device, the at least one network node determining at least one security event;
- a processing system coupled to the at least one network node for analyzing the at least one security event;
- and
- said at least one network node sending a security alarm including a cause code to the processing system in response to the at least one security event.
2 more elements
A method for network security comprising the steps of:
- receiving by a network node a request for network services from a mobile device;
- determining by the network node a failure of the request for network services;
- and
- responsive to the step of determining, sending a security alarm to a security event processing system, said security alarm including a cause code representative of the failure.
