A (U)SIM card is a smart card that stores a subscriber's identity and authentication information. It contains a unique serial number (ICCID) and subscriber identity (IMSI) as well as secret keys like the master key (K) and other keys (OPc, r1-r5, c1-c5) used for authentication on cellular networks. If the secret keys on the (U)SIM card are stolen or compromised, the subscriber's identity and ability to authenticate on the network would be at risk.

• (U)SIM is a smart card (a mini computer). • SIM stores ICCID (serial number) IMSI ( E.g. 310 150 123456789 ) USA+AT&T +id number Secrets • Secret on 2G SIM: master key K. • Secrets on 3G/4G USIM: master key K, and OPc, r1, r2, …, r5, c1, …, c5. • What if secrets are stolen/compromised?
