5G Security (Room 221-222)

One of the use cases of 5G is wireless and wireline convergence (WWC). In WWC, the 5G core manages both wireless access networks and wireline access networks (e.g., cable networks).  This workshop includes discussion of the 5G unified authentication framework, which allows authentication to become access network agnostic and consistent between wireless and wireline networks. It will also focus on threats against mobile subscribers and classify such security threats into three categories: Pre-authentication threats, authentication threats, and post-authentication threats.
