  1. S40-20080721-004 3GPP2 TSG-S WG4 Comparison of Key Derivation proposals for eHRPD Source: Qualcomm IncorporatedContact(s) Anand Palanigounder (apg@qualcomm.com) Recommendation: Discuss and adopt

  2. PMK Derivation proposals • Proposal 1: • PMK=KDF (MSK, “PMK”) • Proposal 2: • PMK = KDF (MSK, ANID) where ANID is the Access Network Identifier • In this contribution, both proposals are compared

  3. Proposal 1 - Advantages • No complex new rekeying procedures or requirements required for the eAT, eAN, HSGW for inter and intra-AN HOs • No changes required to GKE (C.S0067) • Consistent with PMK transfer in inter-AN HOs in HRPD (Session State Information Record) • No additional A11 signaling messaging with HSGW needed for inter-PCF hand-off within the same HSGW • No reliance or requirements regarding availability of additional info for PMK derivation • Same level of security as proposal 2 for inter-AN HOs under the same PCF • GKE Keys can be pre-computed & used • Important for connected state HOs

  4. Proposal 1 - Disadvantages • No key binding for inter-PCF HOs under the same HSGW • Binding to PCF identity (ANID) not needed as PMK is not given to the BS (edge node) • BS may be located in physically vulnerable location • BSC/RNC located in a operator-controlled environments • This is similar to vulnerabilities at the HSGW • Conclusion: The requirement for PMK binding to a centrally-located, operator-controlled node seems unnecessary from security perspective

  5. Proposal 2 - Advantages • Binds the PMK to the PCF identity (ANID) • security gain not clear (refer to prev. slide)

  6. Proposal 2 - Disadvantages • Requires changes to GKE specs (C.S0067) • should not send PMK in inter-AN HOs session transfer • May be others changes needed (as identified in S40-20080715-003)? • Requires new requirements and complex procedures for re-keying inter-AN HOs • changes to C.S0024 & IOS specs needed • Requires unnecessary A11 signaling messaging between AN & HSGW for inter-AN HOs • ANID not available to AT until Location update (LU) • E.g., LU not performed in connected mode HOs • Unnecessary complexity and performance impacts to HRPD AN and AT • Old PMK re-used if AT hands-back to previously visited AN (no MSK change) – same as proposal 1

  7. Conclusion • Adopt proposal 1 for PMK derivation
