  • Abstract
    This paper presents an in-depth analysis and evaluation of the security of UMTS. Four classes of attacks and threats are discussed in detail. Thereafter, the available security mechanism and services of UMTS are reviewed and evaluated. It is found that most of the potential attacks and threats can be thwarted by the available security services and mechanisms of UMTS.
