Securing 5G Non-Public Networks Against Fake Base Station

Abstract

Various industries have adopted 5G Non-Public Networks to take advantage of improved connectivity while remaining separate from public networks. As these networks support private operations, they demand stringent security measures to prevent potential harm. This research paper focuses on securing 5G non-public networks against fake base station attacks, which pose a significant threat to the security of mobile networking. The study analyzes the risks associated with fake base stations and reviews various protection methods. Our findings underscore the importance of deploying effective countermeasures to mitigate the threats posed by fake base stations in 5G Non-Public Networks.
