AAA
Authentication, Authorization
and Accounting

Pioneering Smart Connectivity


for a Connected World
Authentication,
Authorization and Accounting
As defined by industry standards, "AAA stands for Authentication, Authorization and Accounting, and the
Diameter-based Protocol AAAS, which stands for Authentication, Authorization and Accounting with Secure
Transport. These protocols were defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force in RFC 6733 and are
intended to provide an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) framework for applications, such
as network access or IP mobility in both local and roaming situations."

And this is exactly what AAA from Summa Networks does. Secure access to your network under different
scenarios to enable use cases like VoWiFi, use of secondary devices, access from WiFi networks.

Key Features at a Glance:


Elevate Security with Summa Networks´AAA
Unlock a secure and controlled digital environment with Summa Networks´s AAA. In essence, AAA's key
features provide a secure, controlled, and compliant environment by verifying identities, granting access,
and tracking activities. Elevate your security strategy with Summa Networks´AAA—where precision meets
protection.

Overall, AAA is a comprehensive framework that plays a crucial role in securing network access, enforcing
policies, and maintaining accountability:

• Authentication Simplified: User inserts SIM card, initiates network connection. Network requests IMSI
from the SIM card. Seamless, secure user authentication process.
• Authorization Precision:
Access Control: Define user access based on permissions and roles. Granular Control: Fine-tuned access
rights for users or resources. Policy Enforcement: Enforce access control policies seamlessly.
• Efficient Accounting:
Audit Trails: Log user activities for auditing and compliance. Usage Tracking: Monitor and manage
network/system resources.
• Scalability and Compatibility:
Scalability: Accommodate large user/device numbers while maintaining performance. Interoperability:
Compatible with diverse environments, devices, and protocols.
• Smart Session Management:
Session Management: Ensure continuous user access and privileges.Integration with External Systems:
Connect with external identity providers.
• Customization for Precision:
Customization: Tailor authentication, authorization, and logging to organizational needs. Security Event
Alerts: Real-time monitoring with alerts for unauthorized activities.
• Insightful Reporting:
Reporting and Analytics: Analyze access patterns and identify potential threats. Compliance Support:
Meet regulatory requirements with detailed logs and audit trails.
Flexible deployment
Summa Networks AAA can be deployed as a
stand-alone product to connect to existing
HSS, ePDG, PGW.
As a 3GPP standard compliant product, it can
interwork with any other standard elements.
Summa Networks´ AAA is offered as well
integrated with Summa Networks HSS as a
single piece of software. This bundling creates
a number of advantages for carriers:

• Both network functions are deployed in the


same HW, no need for extra resources or
communication links.
• No need for interoperability testing as

Sustainability statement
Summa Networks is committed to sustainability from the ground up, it is an energy-efficient company by design.

Telecom industry represents 3% of energy consumption and carbon footprint.


Within that, while the Radio Access Network (RAN) significantly contributes to global energy usage, accounting for approximately 73% of energy
consumption in telecom networks, Mobile Core, where Summa Networks operates with its software, represents only 0.06% of the energy
consumption within the telecom sector.

Nevertheless, when it comes to our energy-efficient software production, we can highlight how we design and develop our solutions in ways
that optimise hardware and energy resource usage. This involves implementing efficient algorithms, optimising code, and responsibly utilising
system resources, all of which reduce the burden on hardware equipment and minimise energy consumption during the execution of our
applications. We could also emphasise that our software development philosophy includes a continuous commitment to improving and
innovating in energy efficiency.

Moreover, we have a clear compromise with the sustainability principles:


We focus on producing software that minimises resource consumption, including CPU, memory, and disk usage, ensuring efficient
operations while reducing environmental impact.
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our operational practices. With no physical office, we prioritise remote work, enabling our
employees to work from home using personal PCs. This not only reduces our carbon footprint but also promotes a healthier work-life
balance. By embracing remote work, we minimise commuting emissions, alleviating traffic congestion and air pollution in our communities.
We use cloud services for our processes, taking advantage of their green policies on our behalf.

Furthermore, Summa Networks partners with responsible suppliers who share our commitment to ethical and environmental standards. Our
internal servers are located in data centres with green certification, and all our code resides in secure cloud systems where we rely on green
initiatives by Hyperscalers. This ensures that our operations align with sustainable practices and contribute to a more sustainable future for all.

In summary, Summa Networks is dedicated to sustainability in every aspect of our operations. From our minimal energy consumption as a
software producer to our remote work policies and responsible supplier selection, sustainability is woven into the fabric of our company. We
believe that by prioritising sustainability, we can make a meaningful contribution to a greener, more sustainable future.
