Hi, we‘re happy to present AdaptOver this Thursday in Sydney, Australia at the MOBICOM conference.

We use overshadowing, in particular on the uplink, to create a new set of attacks that turn a legitimate base station into an attacker’s asset.

With AdaptOver, an attacker doesn’t use a fake base station. This marks a new attack paradigm that has to be taken into account when developing and evaluating countermeasures or new protocols.

Happy to answer any questions!
