Security Architect View: What can go wrong with the security of 5G networks?
As evidenced by the number of security-related software updates, no new technology is perfect. Nor can vendors or organizations anticipate every security problem in advance.
Hackers can use these weak points in hardware, software, or systems as a beachhead to launch an attack as soon as they are discovered. So you want to harden your chips to reduce cyber risk. It is also a good idea to use a layered approach in your design so that one single attack cannot compromise the whole system. There will never be an end to cybersecurity. Maintain your system by searching for suspicious malware, updating, and verifying it regularly.
The situation is made worse by the fact that hackers are becoming more sophisticated. Hackers are capable of hacking into anything given enough resources and time. Cyberattacks are no longer limited to governments or groups sponsored by governments. Due to the ever-increasing value of data, criminal organizations are becoming much more tech-savvy. The recent ransomware outbreaks are a prime example.
With the advent of 5G networks, cyber attacks are becoming more common. Managed security service providers monitor your network remotely so that you can stay ahead of hackers and increase productivity. Managed security services are crucial in deploying 5G networks. Because of the increased risk of cyberattacks and virus infections.
In recent years, the focus has shifted from developing a bulletproof device or network – a persistent goal – to ensuring that devices and systems can recover. The key concept here is resilience across a system and systems of systems.
To make 5G a reality, strong security must be present throughout the entire system – from the cloud through the network and edge to the device.
In comparison to 4G, 5G provides better data security. Users’ equipment could access the network only using one authentication method (as defined by 3GPP) until 4G.
Added on top of encryption, 5G user-plane integrity protection is now provided for all data traffic. Still, this may not be sufficient for very diverse deployment scenarios of 5G, such as some IoT implementations, factories, enterprises, governments, and so forth.
Apart from authentication at the network access level, 5G also supports authorization at the service level. We support network slice-specific authentication and authorization (NSSAA) and secondary authentication and authorization for data network access.
In addition to URLLC in 5G networks, we are covering non-public networks, industrial IoT, automotive V2X, edge computing, uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), inbound access (IAB), proximity services (ProSe), and multicast and broadcast systems (MBS).
