  1. Global Standards Collaboration (GSC) 14 ATIS Cybersecurity Art Reilly, Cisco

  2. Highlight of Current Activities (1) ATIS’ Packet Technologies and Systems Committee (PTSC) • Completed: • UNI and NNI signalling security standards • UNI and NNI testing standards • Encourages interfaces to support logging, thereby facilitating the creation of incident reports

  3. Highlight of Current Activities (2) • PTSC continues to focus on security-related topics that will ensure robust signalling and communications standards and network implementations that will provide adequate protection and support for multimedia and emergency services in the current cybersecurity environment: • Authentication • Security Mechanisms • Location • Identity Management • Certificate Management • PTSC has also initiated an activity which will define interconnection test suites

  4. Highlight of Current Activities (3) • PTSC’s focus is on specifying security considerations for Layers 1 through 5 for UNIs, NNIs and SNIs • Generation of templates will: • Attempt to limit number of available interconnection options, without compromising the desired flexibility in implementing the services, thereby facilitating interoperability • Facilitate interconnection negotiations • Ensure adequate security will be provided

  5. Highlight of Current Activities (4) ATIS’ Network Performance, Reliability, and QoS Committee (PRQC) • Approved User-Network Interface (UNI) Media Plane Security Standard for Evolving VoIP/Multimedia Networks (ATIS-0100024.2009) • Currently working on Standard for Media Plane Performance Security Impairments Standard for Evolving VoIP/Multimedia Networks (Issue A035) • Document potential QoS degradations associated with security mechanisms • Identify potential security problems associated with QoS mechanisms • Current/Future work: • Development of Standards extending from the work outlined in ATIS-0100014, Information & Communications Security for NGN Converged Services IP Networks and Infrastructure

  6. Highlight of Current Activities (5) ATIS’ Telecom Management and Operations Committee (TMOC) • Recently completed work: • ATIS-0300074.2009, Guidelines and Requirements for Security Management Systems • Includes an ATIS TMOC proforma requirements statement for security aligning with ITU-T M.3410 • TMOC will continue to address: • Management aspects of security, especially concerning NGN Carrier Interconnection arrangements and VoIP Registry Database Provisioning

  7. Strategic Direction • ATIS continues to develop a suite of security standards that well facilitate secure interconnection of: • transport facilities • signalling facilities • services • ATIS is not focusing on: • Security Mechanisms for Messaging Applications • Tracking • ATIS is looking to ITU-T to address the messaging and tracking areas in the short term. If ITU-T does not address this subject, ATIS may reconsider work in this area.

  8. Challenges • SIP security solutions are tailored to be end to end. • SIP/SIPPING/SIMPLE/etc. RFCs have well written security sections that are not fully implemented in vendor products. • Security solutions have an impact on delay and performance. • Availability of ITU-T Recommendations which can be used to facilitate secure transport and service interconnection.

  9. Next Steps/Actions • ATIS will continue on its current path of generating a complete suite of standards that can be used to facilitate interconnection negotiations and result in interconnection scenarios that are secure.

  10. Proposed Resolution • Continued support for GSC-13 Security Related Resolutions: • Resolution GSC-13/4 - Identity Management • Resolution GSC-13/11 - Cybersecurity • Resolution GSC-13/25 - Personally Identifiable Information Protection
