"The History of Cellular Network Security Doesn’t Bode Well for 5G"

The 5G mobile communication standard is expected to bring improvements to users. However, there are still concerns surrounding whether 5G will fix security flaws in cell networks or not. Security researchers have already uncovered critical security flaws in the 5G standard. A cell network security researcher, named Roger Piqueras Jover, recently published a blog post in which he discussed the history of cell network security research, flaws that have been uncovered in this research, and his views on 5G security. This article continues to discuss keys points made by Jover in regard to the acceleration of cell network security research, standardization efforts, and increased efforts by researchers to fix security flaws in cell networks.
