Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Liu Liehong said that, on the one hand, 5G inherits the 4G network layered domain security architecture and has more advantages than 4G in terms of service domain security, unified authentication framework, privacy protection and Internet roaming security. Strong security capabilities; on the other hand, due to the introduction of new technologies such as network function virtualization, network slicing, edge computing in 5G, the network architecture has evolved to cloud-network integration and cloud-edge collaborative , which brings benefits to network construction, operation and business applications. Come new security challenges.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposed to promote the construction of a network security guarantee system that is compatible with the development of 5G. At the same time, focusing on 5G equipment security, benchmarking against 5G security international standards, promoting the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology 5G security evaluation laboratory to be included in the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) accredited laboratory, and completing the core network of major 5G equipment manufacturers in the world. and base station equipment security test .
