Mobile payments have been implemented in a number of ways using different technical and business models. Most of the solutions operating with mobile phones use GSM. GSM standard is one of the most popular standards in mobile communications because of SMS technology. SMS provides low cost, easy to use Text Messaging for mobile communication systems and is highly applied to advertising, banking, news, updates, and etc. In this paper we focus on using safe and secure SMS in banking. SMS, by nature, sends and receives clear text, and therefore, is not safe. Consequently, SMS message needs to be encrypted from client to the server to guarantee a secure communication. In this paper we propose a new approach for this goal.

Short Message Service (SMS) has grown in popularity over the years and it has become a common way of communication. SMS is usually used to transport unclassified information, but with the rise of mobile commerce it has become a popular tool for transmitting sensitive information between the business and its clients. By default SMS does not guarantee confidentiality and integrity to the message content. Therefore SMS is not totally secure and reliable. This affects the Wireless Messaging API (WMA)-an optional package for Java 2 Micro Edition that enables SMS messaging on Java-enabled cellular phones. This paper proposes a protocol that can be used to secure a SMS connection between a WMA client and SMS-based server.

— Short message service (SMS) is most important communication medium in many daily life applications, including healthcare monitoring, mobile banking, mobile commerce, and so on. When a SMS send an from one mobile phone (MS) to another MS (Mobile subscriber), the information contained in the SMS transmit as plain text. Sometimes this information may be confidential like account numbers ,passwords, license number ,PAN number and so on, and it is a major drawback to send such information through SMS while the traditional SMS service does not provide encryption to the information before its transmission, However telecom service providers are ensuring at server end some security provided as Using A3,A8 and Kc algorithms through Triplet Authentication system, but not providing during the message transformation .In this paper, we propose an efficient and secure protocol called User End secure SMS along with integrity key check and massage through Encrypted form as secure manner from source to destination across GSM or UMTS networks , which provides end-to-end secure communication through SMS between end users. The working of the protocol is presented by considering two different scenarios. The analysis of the proposed protocol shows that this protocol is able to prevent various attacks, including SMS disclosure, over the air modification, replay attack, man-in-the middle attack, and impersonation Attack. .The protocol completely based on the symmetric key cryptography and retains original architecture of cellular network. The simulation generated in C#.net for execution system. SMS protocol is successfully designed in order to provide end-to-end secure communication through SMS between mobile users. The analysis of the proposed protocol shows that the protocol is able to prevent various attacks. The transmission of symmetric key to the mobile users is efficiently managed by the protocol. We consider all the transmission among various Authentication Server AS (Either same location or different location) take place by encrypting the message with a symmetric key shared between each pair of AS. This protocol produces lesser communication and computation overheads, utilizes bandwidth efficiently, and reduces message exchanged ratio during authentication than AES overheads, utilizes bandwidth efficiently, and reduces message exchanged ratio during authentication than AES

SMS banking still becomes a popular way to make transaction inquiry in Indonesia. The technology protocol used by the service provider is still not secure. The majority of local banks in Indonesia still use non-secure SMS protocols standard. Therefore, an SMS Banking protocol, providing information security service in the transactional message, is urgently in need. Information security can be achieved through some security mechanisms, i.e., encipherment, digital signature, data integrity, and key exchange. These mechanisms are applicable through the implementation of cryptography. SMS Banking security protocol in this research runs through two steps. The first step is the transmission of the transaction request, and the second step is the transaction process. The encipherment is conducted using 3DES symmetric cryptography. Digital signature and data integrity are conducted using ECDSA asymmetric cryptography. The key exchange is conducted using ECDH. The test result showed that the ...

One of the key issues of modern cryptography is the problem of establishing a secure end-to-end communication over an insecure communication channel. Short Message Service (SMS) is a hugely popular and easily adopted communications technology for mobile devices. Users conduct business, disclose passwords and receive sensitive notification reports from systems using this communication technology. SMSs by default are sent in clear text form within the serving GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) network, Over The Air (OTA), and potentially over the public Internet in a predictable format. This allows anyone accessing the GSM system to read, and or modify the SMS content even on the fly. In this paper, we present an approach mainly consists of two steps, first, SHA-1 authentication is used to generate a message digest that is combined with previous message digest and a shared secret key to form an initial key stream. Secondly, this key will be used as input to a mathematical equation derived in prefix notation from randomly selected set of operators and functions supported by the software platform extracted from special table. The final key stream is the output of this equation which is a one time pad to encrypt the original message text. Lastly, encrypted SMS message will be sent and a randomized operation will be then applied to that table. A one-time pad, considered to be the only perfectly secure cryptosystem, secures an SMS message for transport over any medium between a mobile device and the serving GSM network and through it too.

Short Message Service (SMS) has become common in many of our daily life applications. Sometimes SMS is used to send confidential information like password, passcode, banking details etc. But in traditional SMS service, information content is transmitted as plain text which is not at all secure. It’s because when SMS is transmitted as plain text without using any encryption mechanisms it is easily subjected to many attacks. In this paper, we propose a protocol called SecuredSMS which make use of the symmetric key shared between the end users thus providing secure and safe communication between two users. The analysis of this protocol shows that it is highly secure as it is able to prevent the information content from various attacks like replay attack, man-in-the-middle attack, over the air modification and impersonation attack. SecuredSMS can be activated in the phone using PIN number. It also provides a way for remote destruction and remote locking in the case if the phone is stolen or lost.

The Short Message Service (SMS) is one of the frequently used mobile services with universal availability in all GSM networks. The current SMS hasnít achieved secure transmission of plaintext between different mobile phone devices. SMS doesnít have its own build-in mechanism to secure the transmitted data because security isnít considered as a priority application for mobile devices. Many SMS security schemes have been proposed by the researchers. This survey presents the existing schemes used to secure SMS message communication. State of the art SMS security solutions for mobile devices is presented from the period 2006-2013. Literature research of those security schemes is conducted and presented in this survey. The effect of each security scheme on mobile device's performance is also observed. Finally, a general summary of all security schemes with their limitations is presented.

Short message service (SMS) is a very popular and one of the easy to use communication technologies for mobile phone devices. Originally, this service was not designed to transmit secured data, so the security was not an important issue during its design. Short Message Service is normally used to transport unclassified data, but with the rise of mobile commerce it has become a fundamental tool for conducting business. However SMS does not guarantee confidentiality and integrity of the message. Now a days, short message service (SMS) is being us ed in many daily life applications, including mobile banking, mobile commerce, and so on. But when we send an SMS from one mobile device to another, the information contained in the SMS transmit as plain text. Sometimes this information may be confidential like account numbers, passwords, license numbers, and so on, and it is a major drawback to send such information through SMS while the traditional SMS service does not provide encryption to the information before its transmission. In this paper, we propos e an efficient and secure technique, which provides end - to - end secure communication through SMS between end users. This paper proposes encryption technique that can be used to secure a SMS communication, when SMS is transmitting form source to destination, it have to be reached up to the destination securely means SMS transmission have to be secure.
