Description

Wireless network cybersecurity has become a complex topic involving everything from physical-layer to network and application-layer techniques. Because the threat surface of 5G is larger than previous generations and because the technologies are so involved, we engineers dive into those complexities with detailed explanations and myriad acronyms (DDOS, MiTM, OpenSSL, SBA, SEAF, SEPP, SCAS, etc.). Because wireless security involves interwoven disciplines of radio, mobile networking, datacomms, and computer security principles, and even the sociological study of the anticipation of malicious behavior, experts in any one of these areas find at least one of the others difficult to grasp. Addressing security is also a mix of addressing security by specification, by design, by implementation, and by operational practice. This presentation will provide a fundamental framework for building understanding across these disciplines—especially between the wireless domain and the cybersecurity domain. From a design and measurement perspective, this talk will provide a practical foundation for both communities based on the context of two important perspectives: 1) Fundamentals for better understanding; 2) Proposals for a better approach to measure network security.
