This book focuses on 5G Security that is developed as a joint effort of many contributors.
First of all, we would like to give our thanks to all of the chapter authors for doing a
great job!
This book would not have been possible without the help of so many people. The
initial idea for this book originated during our work in The Naked Approach (Nordic
perspective to gadget‐free hyperconnected environments), Towards Digital Paradise
(TDP) and SECUREConnect (Secure Connectivity of Future Cyber‐Physical Systems)
projects. We thank the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation (Tekes),
Academy of Finland and Center for Industrial Information Technology (CENIIT) that
funded the above research projects. We would also like to acknowledge all the partners
in The Naked Approach, Towards Digital Paradise and SECUREConnect projects.
We also thank all the reviewers for helping us to select suitable chapters for this book.
Moreover, we thank anonymous reviewers who have evaluated the proposal and given
us plenty of useful suggestions for improving it. Professor Henning Schulzrinne, from
the US Federal Communications Commission, wrote a nice foreword for this book and
we really appreciate his efforts. We thank Sandra Grayson from John Wiley & Sons for
her help and support in getting the book published.
Also, the authors are grateful to the Centre for Wireless Communications (CWC) and
University of Oulu for hosting the 5G‐related research projects, which helped us to gain
the fundamental knowledge for this book. Last but not the least, we would like to thank
our core and extended families and our friends for their love and support in getting the
book completed.
