MobileAtlas: Geographically Decoupled Measurements in Cellular Networks for Security and Privacy Research

arXiv:2403.08507v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: Cellular networks are not merely data access networks to the Internet. Their distinct services and ability to form large complex compounds for roaming purposes make them an attractive research target in their own right. Their promise of providing a consistent service with comparable privacy and security across roaming partners falls apart at close inspection.
Thus, there is a need for controlled testbeds and measurement tools for cellular access networks doing justice to the technology's unique …
