A burgeoning second quantum revolution promises powerful applications of quantum mechanical phenomena discovered and understood throughout the last century. While the biggest impacts seem confined to an undetermined future time frame, some quantum technologies are achieving maturation. We ask a panel of experts about the current and near-term applications of quantum technologies in information and sensing.
5G will provide significant societal value as it is used for critical infrastructure, mission critical applications, smart manufacturing, connected car, and other use cases. As a result of this new usage, our risk tolerance must be decreased because of the increased impact of cyberattacks on the 5G network. This requires a risk-based approach to securing Radio Access Networks (RAN) as it evolves to Open RAN that is virtualized, disaggregated, cloud-native, automated, and intelligent. Along with new secure use cases, there is an emerging requirement for Open RAN which can be implemented using the approaches of virtual RAN, Cloud RAN, and O-RAN. These new technologies in the wireless cellular space bring inherent security benefits while also introducing new security risks. This presentation will address the Open RAN approaches and the security risks for each. Open RAN security topics that will be discussed include 3GPP 5G security, cloud security, security-by-design, and secure use of open source software. ORAN’s expanded threat surface, with additional interfaces and functions, introduces additional security risks that will also be discussed. The presentation will also introduce concepts to achieve a zero-trust architecture for Open RAN that can be implemented in Cloud RAN and O-RAN. The multi-party relationship between the operator, cloud provider, and system integrator requires security roles and responsibilities are clearly defined in this presentation.
Spain’s 5G players - government, operators, industry — are investing heavily in pilot projects covering virtually every use case. This session will give an overview and highlights of Spain’s first years of 5G consumer deployment and business use cases. We will provide an inside look at pilot case experimentation, exposing lessons learned and comparing deployment in Spain and in other countries in an effort to identify the key ingredients for 5G’s economical and societal success.
COVI-COM intends to leverage technological advancements and techniques in communications and AI to address disruptive, as well as regular challenges arising due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The present-day world urgently needs resilient and sustainable solutions that can address the challenges arising out of the mandated need for periodic sanitization, intermittent quarantines and lockdowns, and social distancing. This workshop aims to mobilize the global communications and networking community for enabling long-term solutions for alleviating the social and economic constraints put in place to battle COVID-19 infections and arrest its spread. The impact of these solutions are projected to be long-term as with no definite cure or treatment in sight, human society is expected to adapt to the new social norms of intermittent lockdowns, quarantine, and social distancing. This workshop encourages the use of machine learning techniques, data mining, network science, communication technologies, and other similar technologies to counter the challenges arising out of the present COVID-19 pandemic.
This workshop provides a venue to bring together standards developers, leading researchers and engineers from government, industry, and academia to present and discuss recent results on shared spectrum technology, and to promote its expedited development.
This academic keynote is on Security & Differential Privacy in Edge Computing. Bio: Anna Scaglione (M.Sc.'95, Ph.D. '99) is currently a professor of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University. Prior to that she was a professor at UC Davis (2008-2014) and at Cornell University (2001-2008) and at the University of New Mexico (2000-2001).
