  • Abstract
    Short Messaging Service (SMS) has removed difference between near and far. Because of guaranteed delivery, people use it on daily basis for connectivity. Not only humans but Information Systems have also utilized it to connect, known as automated messaging. Although automated messaging holds prominent SMS market share but full potential was not reached because of the fact that SMS has no security at all. Any SMS sent or received can be intercepted and manipulated by Man In The Middle (MITM). To resist MITM in next generation smartphones we have proposed a new framework which can be used to secure both human and automated messaging. This automated messaging. This new framework use HTTPS for secure key exchange, ECC, RSA as encryption algorithm and GSM network to send and receive encrypted messages.
