Security in 5G Networks

Course outline

Duration to discuss

OVERVIEW

5G networks provide connectivity to a massive number of devices, enabling many vertical industries to provide wireless connectivity anytime anywhere. This poses security threats from many sources. 5G network security needs to include wireless, transport and IT network security approaches. This course provides a broad technical overview of 5G network security.

OBJECTIVE

After completing this course, the learner will be able to:

Identify various security threats to 5G networks

Sketch the security framework in 5G RAN, core, transport and interconnect networks

Identify common security techniques between 5G security and IT networks

Step through very high-level 5G operations of authentication, encryption, ciphering, etc.

List key 5G-specific security enhancements

TARGET AUDIENCE

This course is intended for planning, engineering, and systems integration teams.
