GCM on TLS gives greater performance and the integrity can be confirmed earlier, but there are no serious security problems on algorithm side.
- bryancoxwell 4y agoImportant to note that the encryption you mention applies to user data traveling between the UE and the eNodeB. Some control plane data between the UE and eNB is unencrypted and no encryption of user data is done between the eNB and the network (unless it’s done at a higher layer).
