scope:

The present document presents the results of the Threat Vulnerability Risk Analysis (TVRA) for the NGN.

The present document follows the method and proforma for carrying out a TVRA defined in TS 102 165-1 [i.4] and incorporates material of the NGN threat and risk analysis herein.

The present document identifies security-relevant interfaces in the NGN, identifies security-relevant scenarios for use in the NGN, analyses NGN in terms of security threats and risks by performing a security threat and risk analysis, and classifies the identified vulnerabilities and the associated risk presented to the NGN.

This threat and risk analysis makes a number of assumptions that are believed to hold for typical deployment scenarios of the NGN.

NOTE 1: Depending on the actual instantiation of the NGN some of the assumptions declared in the present document may not fully hold and this may alter the associated risks.

NOTE 2: Whilst the present document is a technical report it identifies requirements for future work. In all cases these requirements are considered indicative pending their ratification in formal ETSI Technical Specifications within the TISPAN Work Programme.
