IoT provides a foundation for ensuring security in 5G propositions
This report is available to those subscribed to the IoT & Enterprise module.
The GSMA held its Mobile 360 event in The Hague last month to share approaches to security challenges in 5G. The sector bears the burden of investing in, deploying and operating networks but has to fill the gap that 5G exposes in technical skills, business processes and cultural mindset. In among the 5G topics at the event was IoT security, with speakers sharing how they safeguard networks as IoT is deployed. We argue that operators can draw lessons from ensuring security in their IoT portfolios as a foundation for their 5G propositions for enterprises.
