Abstract
Mobile networks are constantly changing and adapting to the needs of users and providers. The legacy global system for mobile communications (GSM) step in the evolution of mobile networks has by far the largest installed user-base. The very large user-base has made it a requirement for providers to modify their future systems to interoperate with the legacy GSM system. The security problems brought about by this legacy integration have a major impact on the security improvements developed for the universal mobile telecommunications systems (UMTS). This paper proposes simple and effective solutions to reduce the possible attacks on the UMTS systems due to the above integration. First we propose a subtle modification to the GSM security protocols as a standalone solution, and then a modification to the UMTS security protocols is proposed as a second solution.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
