PROBLEMS OF INFORMATION SECURITY IN 5G NETWORK TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The article describes the new wireless standards inevitably lead to digital transformation. In addition to significantly outperforming previous generations in terms of capacity and bandwidth, 5G networks and systems will provide the infrastructure to support a wide variety of services: industrial Internet of Things and intelligent control systems, autonomous vehicles and drones, vital e-health and remote surgery, virtual and augmented reality, remote diagnostics and preventive maintenance, etc. The number of Internet devices is growing rapidly, so the old standards inevitably have to be upgraded. To work properly, many devices need higher network bandwidth. 5G works on other frequencies, gives Internet access to more devices, has ultra-fast speed and minimizes data transmission delays. Such network improvements require a radically new approach to the security model, unlike that used in cellular systems until the last fourth generation.
