Fan Zi-Fu, Yi Zhang, Wan Xiao-Yu · 2010
Parlay/OSA is a key service provisioning technology in next generation network, which opens the functions of telecommunication network to the 3rd service supplier and uses Parlay Framework Interface to ensure the security when the 3rd service supplier accessing to the Parlay/OSA. However, there are still some security vulnerabilities in this technology. In this paper, an improved security protection mechanism for Parlay/OSA framework is proposed, which adopts the SSL\TLS to the TSM authentication process in order to improve the security of Parlay/OSA further. The testing and verification results prove that the new authentication mechanism can improve the Parlay framework security effectively.
