As 5G technology continues to be rolled out worldwide—providing latency of a mere 1 millisecond—it is critical that information security professionals become familiar with 5G system architecture and security architecture, and the risks that come with implementing new cellular technologies. ISACA’s new white paper, 5G Security: Addressing Risk and Threats of Mobile Network Technologies, explores these topics, and compares 5G technology with 4G and previous networks.

Professionals and organizations can also realize substantial benefits through implementing 5G technology. The paper details 5G’s vast improvements over the capabilities of 4G and previous networks, including:
- 5G technology’s faster network with higher capacity can serve the connectivity needs of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, eliminating lags in data transmission across the network.
- 5G technology’s flexibility can support many static and mobile IoT devices, which have a diverse range of speed, bandwidth and quality of service requirements.
- 5G technology will result in a 90% reduction in network energy usage with up to 10 years’ worth of battery life for low-powered IoT devices.
