INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS 5G?
5G technology is a breakthrough.
The next generation of telecom networks (fifth generation or 5G) started
hitting the market at the end of 2018 and will continue to expand
worldwide.
Beyond speed improvement, the technology is expected to unleash
a massive 5G IoT (Internet of Things) ecosystem where networks can
serve communication needs for billions of connected devices, with the
right trade-offs between speed, latency, and cost.
This makes sense if you think about what 5G has to offer.

ABOUT SECURITY
WILL 5G TECHNOLOGY BE SECURE?
The world has pushed 4G networks to their limits due to the
growth of IoT devices and smart consumer gadgets.
5G is not only faster with greater capacity, but it also provides
increased security and privacy compared to previous cellular
generations.
5G is an essential evolution of 4G security controls with new
security protocols that address existing vulnerabilities.
Although 5G inherits much of 4G's network security architecture,
the 5G standard has security as a key design principle, unlike its
predecessors.
A 5G device never sends its true identity but rather a privacy-
preserving identifier containing the concealed SUPI, called the
Subscriber Concealed Identity. This ensures that a user's or
device's identity and location are encrypted, making them
impossible to identify or locate from the moment they join a
network.
