Algorithms

• ETSI is a world leader in creating cryptographic
  algorithms and protocols to prevent fraud and
  unauthorised access to ICT and broadcast
  networks, and to protect customers privacy
• ETSI algorithms include
• algorithms used to protect GPRS, GSM and 3GPP
  communications
• extremely robust in real-life situations
• Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) receiver
  algorithm for PBX and Central Office applications
• used around the world, outperforming all
  traditional solutions
• Conditional Access for TV etc

ongoing work

• Lawful Interception (see GSC11_Joint_17)
• service specific details for IP multimedia
  services intercept
• considerations for CSP domain IP interception
• service-specific details for IP delivery of
  PSTN/ISDN Services interception
• Technical Report on Stored Data Handover
• Smart cards
• GSM SIM card standards for security,
  authentication etc
• extended the USIM and UICC for 3G and other
  applications, including access control to WLANs
  and for PC security functions
• Electronic signatures
