IoT-Enabled 5G Networks for Secure Communication

Abstract

Internet of things (IoT) meets 5G communications, which aims to use a variety of promising network technologies to support a significant number of connected devices. For cognitive computing, massive machine type of communication (mMTC), cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and so on, huge challenges for security, privacy, and trust are predicted. Technologies for 5G wireless communication encourage its use of mobile networks not just to connect with people and machines but also to connect and manage other equipment that supports virtual reality, such as self-driving cars, IoT drones, surveillance, and security. It is also critical to safeguard the technology of the 5G networks for IoT communication from threats. The different models for 5G IoT communication environment, vulnerabilities, attacks, and its several security protocols are described. The current security mechanisms in 5G networks IoT nature were analyzed and compared. The security challenges and future orientations of 5G-based systems are discussed.
