5G security risk assessment services

5G, the fifth generation of wireless networking, is the new global cellular communications standard and by 2025, the number of 5G connections is set to hit 1.2 billion.

5G is faster, has lower latency, is more reliable, and has better capacity for handling the growing number of connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices. However, a complex 5G business environment with increasing number of connected users and devices significantly increases the attack surface.
