Abstract :
This demonstration shows an innovative concept that introduces PKI for mobile operators. A commercial 3G dongle is equipped with an USIM module used for subscriber´s authentication. The USIM embeds a tiny SSL stack written for java cards. The 3G modem delivers internet connectivity and realizes strong mutual SSL authentication providing, in the presented use case, seamless access to real OPENID services.
