Can we disable security at UE so that UE can get attached to any eNodeB without security process?

Question

I want to know whether we can disable security at UE and can the UE get attached to any eNodeB without security process if security disabled.

For example, in the scenario If UE at the border trying to connect to the eNodeB of the other side of the border, cannot connect because of security procedure So, if we disable can we connect to the other eNodeB.

Could any one please help me regarding this.

Answer 1

Security can be disabled on the UE but it wont be of any use if the same is not done on the Core side.
EnB doesnt have much role role in the authentication/security of UE. Its the network which takes cares of the these things. If the security checks at MME/HSS are disabled than the scenario you have mentioned in your query is certainly possible.
