Communication systems automated security detection based on protocol cause codes

摘要

Using protocol cause codes, a mobile telecommunications network ( 10 ) may be pre-configured with a rule set ( 63 ) to report the results of the cause codes to an automated security event processing system ( 50 ) for security event detection and containment. The cause code information sent from the network nodes ( 30, 40 ) to the automated security event processing system will allow for security event correlation across network nodes for the determination and resolution of security breaches.
