Preface
xxxviii
The main topics concern security of the Internet of Things (IoT), privacy and authentication of users, and positioning security. Chapter 11 describes security of Internet of Things
(IoT) when connected over 5G. A special consideration is given to wireless connectivity
of robots, such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Chapter 12 handles user privacy in
5G, including location, identity and data privacy. Trust models and Identity management
are considered. Chapter 13 performs a deeper investigation of secure device positioning
in 5G. Outdoor and indoor positioning mechanisms are compared in the content of 5G,
and their security threats and avoidance methods are analyzed.
Part IV is dedicated to cloud technologies and network virtualization security.
Chapter 14 describes the roles and security models of Mobile Virtual Network Operators
(MVNO) in 5G. Possible attacks on hypervisors, virtual machines and software‐defined
components to compromise availability, integrity and Authentication, Authorization,
Accounting (AAA) are considered. Chapter 15 handles security of Network Function
Virtualization (NFV) and related services in 5G networks. NFV driving forces, secure
lifecycle and multi‐tenancy issues, policy and machine learning in NFV are discussed.
Chapter 16 introduces a concept of Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) in 5G. Various
security challenges for MEC, possible attacks and secure architectures are described.
The final chapter, Chapter 17 takes a look the regulatory aspects of privacy and security
in 5G. The legal framework, relevance analysis, and technology implications can be
found there.
