DMRSEC
Security audit of Digital Mobile Radio
Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) is an important standard used by emergency services and critical infrastructure globally. New cheap DMR chipsets have made DMR very popular and existing FOSS projects grant DMR the potential to be the most affordable, FOSS-friendly radio standard for use-cases where TETRA or LTE/5G are too heavy or expensive. However, security is not part of the standard and only available through proprietary or non-public DMR Association specifications. As a result, no public security audit of DMR exists and FOSS projects lack any security capabilities which hampers adoption for serious use-cases. The DMRSEC project will perform a thorough DMR security audit, design an improved open DMR security architecture, and integrate said architecture into FOSS projects for affordable COTS hardware.
