Model-based Vulnerability Analysis of IMS Network
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) as the core of Next Generation Network (NGN), its security is vital important. However, IMS is a network with openarchitecture based on IP, which brings a lot of security issues. There has already some research results about IMS security, but systematic and model-based research results are lacked. Based on TVRA method, this paper establishes a comprehensive vulnerability analysis model of IMS network, and makes a systematic analysis about the security objectives, assets, weaknesses, threats and other attributes of IMS network by using this model. The research results of this paper can provide the basis for the security assessment of IMS network.
