This tender is from the country of Netherlands in Europe region. The tender was published by EUROPEAN SPACE RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY CENTRE on 09 Oct 2023 for Tenders are invited for Technological Enablers of Cellular Networks for Pvt Assurance Cellular networks have various built-in security features including the access control, mutual authentication, and key management, which could be evolved to provide technological enablers for PVT assurance. For example, although GNSS serve an unlimited number of users with a limited amount of transmitting stations, they remain prone to spoofing attacks or other security threats. An efficient solution is the use of symmetric cryptographic mechanisms to render the ranging signal unpredictable to the potential attacker. The concept requires workarounds such as sophisticated key management systems or frequent rekeying for scenarios in which the users cannot be trusted. These workarounds could be facilitated by cellular networks technologies. In addition, cellular networks themselves have become relevant sources of PNT, using unencrypted signals. The activity will study, design, and demonstrate the use of cryptographic information securely stored on the SIM card for the encryption of GNSS ranging signals and the provision of native encryption of cellular networks PNT signals to support PVT assurance. The activity will also investigates the feasibility of using post-quantum cryptography for the aforementioned security solutions (e.g. delivery of longer cryptographic keys by cellular networks).. The last date to submit your bid for this tender was 20 Nov 2023. This tender is for the companies specializing in Networks and similar sectors.
