Securing Radiocommunications

Security related activities in ITU-R

ITU-R’s work in radiocommunication standardization continues, matching the constant evolution in modern telecommunication networks. ITU-R established clear security principles for IMT (3G and 4G) networks (Recommendations ITU-R M.1078, ITU-R M.1223, ITU-R M.1457, ITU-R M.1645, and ITU-R M.2012).

ITU-R has also issued Recommendations on security issues in network management architecture for digital satellite systems (Recommendation ITU-R S.1250) and performance enhancements of transmission control protocol over satellite networks (Recommendation ITU-R S.1711).

List of ITU-R Recommendations:

Recommendation ITU-R M.1078: Security principles for International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000)
Recommendation ITU-R M.1223: Evaluation of security mechanisms for IMT-2000
Recommendation ITU-R M.1457: Detailed specifications of the radio interfaces of International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000)
Recommendation ITU-R M.1645: Framework and overall objectives of the future development of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000
Recommendation ITU-R M.2012: Detailed specifications of the terrestrial radio interfaces of International Mobile Telecommunications Advanced (IMT-Advanced)
Recommendation ITU-R S.1250: Network management architecture for digital satellite systems forming part of SDH transport networks in the fixed-satellite service
Recommendation ITU-R S.1711: Performance enhancements of transmission control protocol over satellite networks
