“…The heterogeneity of connected devices makes the private data unprotected due to the lack of proper security infrastructure. The absence of cryptographic integrity protection for user data plane provides additional security threats to IoT devices [27]. The exponential growth of IoT devices will make DDoS attacks more catastrophic and way more easier to arrange [28].…”

Growing client population, ever-increasing service demand, and complexity of services are the driving factors for the mobile operators for a paradigm shift in their core technology and radio access networks. 5G mobile network is the result of this paradigm shift and currently under deployment in many developed countries such as United States, United Kingdom, South Korea, Japan, and China-to name a few. However, most of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) have very recently been implemented 4G mobile networks for which the overall role out phase is still not complete. In this paper, we investigate how feasible it is for LDCs to emphasize on a possible deployment of 5G networks at the moment. At first, we take a holistic approach to show the major technical challenges LDCs are likely to face while deploying the 5G mobile networks. Then we argue that various security aspects of 5G networks are an ongoing issue and LDCs are not technologically competent to handle many security glitches of 5G networks. At the same time, we show that most of the use cases of 5G networks are not applicable in the context of many LDCs (at least at the present time). Finally, this paper concludes that the start of the 5G network deployment in LDCs would take much longer time than expected.

“…Another anticipated method is the MitM attack, where an attacker intercepts communication between two parties to steal data or inject malicious content. The increased reliance on edge computing and IoT devices, which often have weaker security measures, makes 5G networks potentially more vulnerable to MitM attacks [96]. The APTs are another anticipated attack method in 5G networks.…”

“…This section delves into an analysis of notable breach events, focusing on the type of attack, tactics utilized by attackers, the network's vulnerabilities exploited, and the resulting implications. One of the significant breach events in recent history involved exploiting the vulnerabilities of the 5G AKA protocol [96]. There exists a notable instance where attackers exploited the 5G AKA protocol, which led to an MitM attack [71].…”

Fifth-generation (5G) mobile networks have already marked their presence globally, revolutionizing entertainment, business, healthcare, and other domains. While this leap forward brings numerous advantages in speed and connectivity, it also poses new challenges for security protocols. Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have been employed to augment traditional security measures, promising to mitigate risks and vulnerabilities. This paper conducts an exhaustive study to assess ML and DL algorithms’ role and effectiveness within the 5G security landscape. Also, it offers a profound dissection of the 5G network’s security paradigm, particularly emphasizing the transformative role of ML and DL as enabling security tools. This study starts by examining the unique architecture of 5G and its inherent vulnerabilities, contrasting them with emerging threat vectors. Next, we conduct a detailed analysis of the network’s underlying segments, such as network slicing, Massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC), and edge computing, revealing their associated security challenges. By scrutinizing current security protocols and international regulatory impositions, this paper delineates the existing 5G security landscape. Finally, we outline the capabilities of ML and DL in redefining 5G security. We detail their application in enhancing anomaly detection, fortifying predictive security measures, and strengthening intrusion prevention strategies. This research sheds light on the present-day 5G security challenges and offers a visionary perspective, highlighting the intersection of advanced computational methods and future 5G security.

In an era of rapid technological progress, the presence of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) has an impact on society. However, along with the benefits, there are also risks and concerns regarding privacy, security and unemployment due to automation. In this context, the role of public relations becomes crucial in communicating accurate and balanced information to the public about the benefits and risks of AI and IoT. This research aims to explore the role of public relations in communicating the benefits and risks of AI and IoT to the public. The main focus is to understand how public relations practitioners can manage effective and transparent messages to form balanced perceptions and deep understanding among the public. The research method used is literature analysis and case studies to understand best practices in public communication about AI and IoT. Interviews with public relations practitioners were also conducted to gain direct insight into strategies and challenges in communicating complex technology issues to the public. The results of this research identify that public relations plays an important role in conveying accurate, clear and trustworthy information about the benefits and risks of AI and IoT to the public. Effective strategies include a narrative-based approach, use of relevant media platforms, and active engagement with stakeholders. The research conclusion is that by implementing best practices in public relations, organizations and institutions can help society to fully understand the impact of AI and IoT. Transparent and open communication can strengthen public trust and minimize unwarranted fears, thereby creating wider acceptance of technological advances.
