Introduction

5G has the potential to make the world much more connected. Devices in locations without access to traditional broadband networks can be deployed using 5G network connectivity. Higher speeds, lower latency, and increased capacity also make it a potential option for devices where 4G LTE was not a viable option. However, with this growth in systems connected to 5G networks also comes potential security implications. Businesses deploying 5G-connected devices need security solutions capable of monitoring and securing them against cyber threats.

5G Network Security Training course presents old and new threats, security aspects, requirements, and recommendations from various organizations, and then the new, improved functions and procedures designed to improve the security of the future 5G networks for communication with regular users and a growing number of IoT devices.
