Cloud-native 5G

5G is an evolving architecture which will require enhanced security mechanisms to cater to the widened threat surface. Cybersecurity is foundational to realizing dependable and resilient 5G services. Cisco’s 5G solution has security included as a foundation. Government regulators and network operators must work hand-in-hand to ensure cybersecurity best practices and capabilities are designed into 5G infrastructure and operations right from the start.

The path to profitable 5G requires important decisions to be made in 5G core, trustworthy IP infrastructure, and an open radio approach. We must reimagine the end-to-end network. A 5G network transformation will require a trusted partner that is a cross-domain leader in Enterprise, Collaboration, IoT, Data Center, Security, AND SP Infrastructure.
