IW5GS2015
The 1st International Workshop on 5G Security held in
conjunction with IEEE TrustCom-15
August 20-22, 2015, Helsinki, Finland
There is a fast on-going change in the technical architectures and topologies
of the Internet: in the near future 5G and next generation 4G/LTE network
architectures will be based on or migrated to Software Defined Networking (SDN)
and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). These create new virtual network
elements each affecting the logic of the network operation, traffic management
and introducing new and novel security challenges. Aspects such as security of
orchestration, management functionality as well as surveillance and privacy are
brought to the fore. At the same time they introduce new ways of dealing with
attack prevention, management and recovery.
The one-day workshop will consist of papers, presentations and demonstrations
on the subject of advanced network security. While primarily related to 5G
networks, experiences from 4G/LTE, 3G and earlier, including case studies on
practicalities of known attacks and novel attack vectors will be considered for
acceptance. An invited keynote speech will be given setting out the overall area
of security in network development and operations.
Scope and Interests We solicit papers and demonstrations in the
following areas related to 5G/LTE security:
- Core Network Security
- Cellular security
- Device to Device (D2D)
- Security Management and Orchestration of NFV and SDN elements
- Terminal and Edge Computing Security
- Malware and attack detection and prevention techniques, eg: machine
learning
- Authentication and Authorisation
- Encryption protocols, eg: homomorphic encryption
- Key Exchange, Storage and Protection
- Content/Semantic processing, inc. anonymisation of (meta*-) data
- Honeypot and Firewall Technologies
- Protocol security: Diameter, SS7, BGP, etc
- Physical Layer Security
- Formal Specification and Analysis of Protocols and Attacks, eg: model
checking etc.
- Trusted Computing with NFV and SDN
