How to deal with 5G security issues?
321 2023-11-24

   At present, a new round of global scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is accelerating. As an important direction for the evolution and upgrading of the new generation of information and communication technologies, 5G is a key information infrastructure for the realization of the Internet of everything and an important driving force for the digital transformation of the economy and society. However, while 5G technology benefits society and people, it also brings new cyber security risks. So how do we deal with these security issues?

1. Adhere to development and security deployment

We will attach equal importance to development and security, and encourage and regulate both. While accelerating the deployment of 5G networks and deepening the integration of 5G and its application in all fields, we will continue to build 5G security capabilities, and make coordinated efforts to ensure the security of 5G network facilities, applications and data. We will closely track 5G security risks, conduct dynamic 5G technology security assessments, and identify priorities for 5G security assurance.

2. Establish a clear and coordinated security responsibility system

We will make clear the responsibilities of all parties involved in the industry ecology, constantly improve the relevant laws, regulations and policies on personal information protection, key information infrastructure protection and network information governance, and ensure that network operators, equipment suppliers, industry service providers and other entities perform their respective duties and responsibilities. We will strengthen the coordination among various industries, give play to the role of industry organizations, establish and improve the security service guarantee guidelines and credit system for 5G networks and vertical industries, and jointly address the security issues of integrated applications in 5G vertical fields.

3. Continue to promote 5G security innovation and development

Strengthen the 5G security technology and standard research, to speed up the building 5G safety inspection system, vigorously promote 5G security technology research, promote asset recognition, data mining, intrusion prevention, protection loopholes, tracing back the evolution of network security products such as upgrading, continuous build complete, diverse and reliable 5G security product supply and service system. We will accelerate the transformation and pilot verification of 5G security technology innovations, and step up efforts to promote security services and solutions in vertical areas such as the Internet of vehicles and the industrial Internet.

4. Strengthen dynamic assessment of security risks in 5G applications

5G fusion application in all kinds of vertical industry will emerge after the deployment of network size, its characteristics related to the vertical height, security risks are also presents the characteristics of continuous dynamic changes, should be combined with 5G vertical characteristics, industry application security related standard study, continue to carry out safety risk cross-industry, interdisciplinary evaluation, strengthen the evaluation results using and transformation, security response and disposal measures are put forward in time, prevent security risks.

5. Build an integrated protection mechanism for 5G network security

We will actively promote the development of security means for 5G network infrastructure, establish and improve a joint mechanism for 5G network threat information sharing, and achieve threat information sharing and co-governance. We will accelerate the construction of an integrated network security defense system for 5G network threat monitoring, global awareness, early warning and protection, and interconnected disposal, so as to form a network security protection capability covering the entire life cycle.

6. Strengthen comprehensive personnel training and training in 5G

We will make coordinated efforts to promote the cultivation of personnel in 5G interdisciplinary disciplines, establish and improve a talent cultivation system that integrates industry and education and encourages cooperation between schools and enterprises, increase support for personnel training, continue to deepen 5G security training and education, enrich the mechanism for 5G security personnel exploration, and establish a multi-level selection channel for security personnel.
