Security architecture in mobile networks

Security architecture in mobile networks refers to the layered systems and protocols designed to protect user data and ensure secure communication. It includes encryption techniques to keep information private, authentication processes to verify user identity, and authorization controls to restrict access. These measures work together across different network parts—devices, base stations, and core infrastructure—to prevent unauthorized access, eavesdropping, and data breaches. Essentially, it creates a secure environment where mobile users can communicate confidently, knowing their information remains confidential and their identities protected as they connect to the network.
