How Will 5G Impact Cybersecurity?

5G is faster and more flexible than 4G, but it carries cybersecurity risks. These include increased attack surfaces, the security vulnerabilities of IoT, GPRS tunneling protocols, connection to legacy networks, increased bandwidth, network function virtualization, reliance on software, and IMSI encryption weaknesses. However, there are advantages, including heightened responsiveness, encrypted traffic, and data segregation.
