Cross-Generational Security Of Mobile Telephony
Abstract— With the recent roll-outs of 5G networks and the rise of phones supporting the standard, it’s critical to examine the technical underpinnings of 5G system security. The fifth generation of 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) mobile telephony, the lack of understanding, outright hostility, and general confusion surrounding this roll-out is unmatched in the history of mobility. We aim to alleviate much of the confusion and hostility by providing an overarching description and security document.
