Description
5G wireless technology is the catalyst to the 4th Industrial Revolution. It is the spark and fuel that will drive new products and services for endless connectivity across devices with unparalleled bandwidth and exceptionally low latency.

If everything is connected, then the impact of a breach or denial of service becomes that much more impactful. 5G networks will be software-centric riding huge cloud platforms in the core and at the edge. The risk is real, and hackers and bad actors will seek out any vulnerabilities.

Security is one of my biggest concerns as carriers build out and deploy 5G networks. I recently spoke on this very topic at the 2021 Linux Foundation Open Networking and Edge Summit. I created this course to drive home the importance of 5G network security and help you build infrastructure, applications, and services that keep security at the forefront.

In this course, you will learn the:

Importance of securing and protecting 5G wireless networks today!

Biggest threats to 5G wireless networks and how to mitigate or prepare for them.

5G network security landscape and how it impacts 5G wireless networks.

Infrastructure necessary for 5G network security, and

Practical steps necessary to protect your 5G network.

Join me in this crusade to protect the next generation of wireless technology and let's make the technological leap safer and more secure!
