To complete 5G wireless network proliferating fast in South Korea, state-run Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) will come up with extra security system.
The institute said it will focus on developing technology to detect security threats in the edge network and multi-access edge computing in 5G. Details including development timeline and funding were not disclosed.
The existing 4G network provides internet services through a centralized core network, which means security management is relatively simple, but 5G is vulnerable to elevated security threats partly because of its connection to a huge number of connected devices including the internet of things (IoT), through which adversaries can attack.
The multi-access edge computing system is more vulnerable to attacks because it is operated as an open loop.
The edge network is the initial connection section from a base station physically close to a terminal to an area covered by the 5G network.
The multi-access edge computing refers to a network architecture that allows for a cloud-based IT service environment at the edge of a network, enabling real-time and low-latency access to radio network information.
