context: a new additional valid SA is installed into the SS7-SEG, the "old" one shall still be kept until it reaches its hard expiry time, so as to be able to accept incoming traffic still received under the "old" SA. An SA being used by an SS7-SEG for outgoing traffic expires when it reaches its soft expiry time. When this occurs, the SS7-SEG shall start using another valid SA. If no such valid SA exists, the SS7-SEG continues to use the "old" SA until it reaches its hard expiry time or another valid SA effectively becomes available. In case the current SA gets compromised, a new valid SA should be made immediately available to all SS7-SEG, which should then stop using the compromised SA and delete it. To ease SA renewal, both networks may decide to set up several TCAPsec SAs in advance so that SS7-SEGs can automatically switch from one SA to another SA. In such a situation, the TCAPsec SAs would have different soft and hard expiry times. When more than one valid SA is available, the SS7-SEG
description: A Security Association (SA) in the context of inter-domain security association and key management procedures refers to a set of parameters used for securing communication between network elements. It includes cryptographic keys, algorithms, and other relevant information necessary for secure data exchange.
explanation: The provided context from 3GPP TS 33.204 discusses the installation, usage, and expiry of Security Associations (SAs) in relation to SS7-SEGs. Given this specific role within telecommunications security management, SA is best categorized as Miscellaneous, as it does not fit neatly into other categories like Protocol or Network Function but is crucial for secure network operations.
