5G network architecture is more complex and dynamic compared to a 4G network, as it uses a combination of radio frequencies, including both low and high bands where low band provides wider coverage, while the high band delivers faster speeds but with limited coverage. But the flexibility in the 5G network makes it more challenging to secure. This is why digital transformation and alarming advancements in the threat landscape have made cybersecurity a global boardroom concern.

According to a report by IDC, global security expenses are set to increase by 12.1% this year and reach nearly $300 billion in 2026. Network security developments are pushing CISOs to raise security and risk spending, which is set to grow by 8% this year with this segment achieving the highest end-user spending in India in 2023.

“The 5G network has been designed to have multiple attributes which will deliver highly secure network and endpoint solutions, which is not normally observed across the previous generation of telecom networks.

5G: Network Security
<\/strong>
The commercial 5G rollout, industry 4.0, and the proliferation of IoT devices have made the need for robust cybersecurity more critical than ever.

Reliance Jio<\/a> and Bharti Airtel<\/a> have been aggressively launching 5G services across India. With 5G coming, the enterprise segment is expected to become a huge revenue generator for the industry.

5G technology brings in a significant shift with increased speed and bandwidth, low latency and high reliability. There will be an increased density of connected devices and massive M2M communication based on massive MIMO, network slicing, MEC and related technologies. These services will enable multiple industry segments- manufacturing, healthcare, autonomous operations to operate in a connected manner. This results in increased attack surface, ranging from network edge becoming more critical for services, heavy reliance on software virtualization technologies, cloud providers and other supply chain partners expose networks to traditional IT threats and risks etc.

“As newer and more advanced technologies emerge, it will become imperative for telecom operators to invest in advanced security solutions to develop a multi-layered security strategy and safeguard their assets and consumers against sophisticated cyber-attacks of the fifth and sixth generation,” Sundar Balasubramanian, Managing Director, India & SAARC at Check Point Software.

According to Check Point’s Threat Intelligence Report for India, in India an organization was attacked on average 2036 times per week in the last 6 months, compared to 1206 attacks per organization globally.

Echoing similar views, SP Kochhar, Director General, COAI (
Cellular Operators Association of India<\/a>) says the 5G network is based on a software-defined and virtualized architecture, which can be easily manipulated by cybercriminals. “Cybercriminals can exploit the vulnerabilities in the network to gain access to the network and launch attacks, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks,” he said.

Rahul Vatts, Chief Regulatory Officer, Bharti Airtel said that security cost is a big area of concern. “There's a lot of loading of cost happening, a lot of applications which are being used by multiple law enforcement agencies sometimes for a similar sort of data requirement. And we have got billions of devices coming into the play where data privacy is also going to be a big issue. The government is already seized of it and a data protection bill is under discussion.”

Considering the increased attack surface area in 5G, there has been significant focus on enhancing the 5G cybersecurity standards which today are designed for interoperable interfaces between 5G components.

However, these standards may not adequately cover cyber protection required at interfaces with other environments, such as IT and also on the components which are used for hosting 5G systems, Gupta adds, saying because of this here is a high likelihood of newer attacks emerging.

Strategies to mitigate network security risks
<\/strong>
Real-time, automated security enforcement at the 5G network and device level is the only way to out maneuver threats in this complex environment, Sean Duca, VP and Regional Chief Security Officer, Asia and JAPAC,
Palo Alto<\/a> Networks, said.

Apart from this, a comprehensive protection of 5G infrastructures requires consistent, real-time granular visibility of threats passing through the networks so they can be detected in real time and extending Zero Trust security into 5G with ML-powered next-generation physical and virtual firewalls to protect 5G infrastructures end-to-end will be critical to secure 5G networks, Duca said.

Balasubramanian adds that given the security risks that will inevitably come with the increased 5G usage, telcos and enterprises need to update their security posture in response to these potential risks.

“As 5G will connect users and applications across mobiles, endpoints, networks, cloud and IoT, it is essential to have advanced threat prevention to protect all types of asset, wherever they are located. This demands a consolidated security architecture that works across all platforms, and uses unified threat intelligence at every enforcement point to prevent both known and unknown threats from penetrating the network fabric. This ensures consistent security, while being fully scalable to cope with the massive bandwidth enabled by 5G,” Balasubramanian said.

COAI’s Kochhar also talks about efficient security safeguards as industry moves to a full fledged 5G launch.

“With the implementation of efficient security safeguards like encryption, multi-factor authentication, network segmentation, threat intelligence and security testing, the risks associated with network security can be mitigated. It is essential for network operators and organizations to prioritize cybersecurity and implement robust cybersecurity measures to protect the 5G network and the data transmitted over it,” Kochhar adds.

Change is the only constant in the technology space which requires continuous investments for modernisation and upgrade of security applications, Balasubramanian adds.

5 g的商业推广,行业4.0,和物联网设备的扩散需要健壮的网络安全比以往任何时候都更为重要。
新一代(5克)技术将迎来数字转换企业跨部门,推动行业4.0,使各种技术包括人工智能(AI)、物联网(物联网),和连接的设备,但大量的机会将具有挑战性的网络安全威胁。

5 g网络体系结构更为复杂和动态的4 g网络相比,它使用无线电频率的组合,包括低和高频带低乐队提供了更广泛的覆盖率,高乐队提供了更快的速度但有限的报道。但是5 g网络的灵活性使得它更具挑战性的安全。这就是为什么数字转换和惊人的进步在景观使网络安全威胁全球董事会的关注。

根据IDC的一份报告,全球安全费用今年将增长12.1%,2026年达到近3000亿美元。网络安全发展是推动CISOs提高安全和风险开支,今年将增长8%,这部分在2023年在印度实现终端用户消费最高。

“5 g网络设计有多个属性,将提供高度安全的网络和终端的解决方案,而不是通常观察到整个电信网络的上一代。需要一些安全网络和端点与先进的安全解决方案和人工智能,提前分析,物联网和云计算和边缘计算有助于创建一个端到端的安全5 g的生态系统,“Atul Gupta,伙伴和头部,数字信任和网络安全服务,毕马威在印度说。

5 g:网络安全

5 g的商业推广,行业4.0,和物联网设备的扩散需要健壮的网络安全比以往任何时候都更为重要。

依赖JioBharti Airtel一直积极地推出5 g服务在印度。5 g的到来,企业部分预计将成为行业一个巨大的收入来源。

5 g技术带来了一个重大转变以增加速度和带宽,低延迟和高可靠性。会有连接设备的密度增加和大规模基于大规模MIMO M2M通信,网络切片,MEC和相关技术。这些服务将使多个行业领域——制造、医疗、自主操作的操作方式连接。这提高了攻击的表面,从网络边缘变得更加关键的服务,严重依赖软件虚拟化技术、云计算供应商和其他传统供应链合作伙伴公开网络威胁和风险等。

“更新、更先进技术的出现,它将成为电信运营商必须投资于先进的安全解决方案开发多层次的安全战略,维护资产和消费者对复杂的网络攻击的第五和第六代,“Sundar Balasubramanian董事总经理、印度和南亚区域合作联盟在检查软件。

根据检查的威胁情报报告给印度,在印度一个组织每周平均2036次袭击在过去6个月,比1206年袭击全球每个组织。

呼应了视图、SP Kochhar总经理COAI (印度手机运营商协会)表示,5 g网络是基于软件定义和虚拟化架构,可以很容易被网络罪犯。“网络罪犯可以利用网络的漏洞来访问网络和发动攻击,如分布式拒绝服务(DDoS)攻击,”他说。

首席监管官员,拉胡尔Vatts Bharti Airtel说,安全成本是一个很大的关注的领域。”有很多装载的成本发生,大量的应用程序正在使用由多个执法机构有时类似的数据要求。和我们有数十亿的设备进入游戏数据隐私也是一个大问题。政府已经占领了它和数据保护法案正在讨论中。”

考虑到攻击表面积增加5克,有显著的关注提高5 g网络安全标准今天是5克组件之间的互操作的接口设计。

然而,这些标准可能不充分地覆盖网络与其他环境保护所需的接口,如它和组件用于举办5 g系统,Gupta说,说,因为这是一个新的攻击新兴的可能性高。

策略来减少网络安全风险

实时、自动安全执法5 g网络和设备水平的唯一途径了机动的威胁在这个复杂的环境中,肖恩·Duca VP和地区首席安全官,亚洲和JAPAC,帕洛阿尔托网络,说。

除此之外,全面保护5 g基础设施需要一致,实时颗粒可见性的威胁通过网络可以实时检测和零信任安全延伸到5 g ML-powered下一代物理和虚拟防火墙保护5 g基础设施的端到端安全5 g网络至关重要,Duca说。

Balasubramanian说,鉴于安全风险,将不可避免地增加了5 g的使用,电信公司和企业需要更新他们的安全姿势以应对这些潜在的风险。

“5 g将连接用户和应用程序在手机、端点、网络、云计算和物联网,必须拥有先进的威胁的预防保护所有类型的资产,无论他们在哪里。这要求一个统一的安全体系结构,在所有平台上,并使用统一的威胁情报在每一个执行点,以防止两个已知和未知的威胁渗透网络结构。这样可以确保一致的安全,同时充分应对巨大的带宽可伸缩启用5克,”Balasubramanian说。

COAI Kochhar还谈到了有效的安全保障,行业移动到一个完整的5 g发射。

”等实施有效的安全保障加密、多因素身份验证、网络分割,威胁情报和安全测试,可以减轻与网络安全相关的风险。至关重要的网络运营商和组织优先网络安全和实现健壮的网络安全措施保护5 g网络和数据传输,”Kochhar补充道。

变化是唯一不变的技术领域中需要连续投资现代化和安全应用程序的升级,Balasubramanian补充道。
