OPEN RAN SECURITY
POINT OF VIEW
Security Considerations in Open-RAN Environments
Open RAN is an exciting step forward in the evolution of mobile networks and services, a step that opens doors to innovation, improved network efficiency and performance, and a more diverse and competitive RAN ecosystem. These can only be achieved via a more open and complex architecture and ecosystem, which enlarges the potential attack surface and increases cybersecurity risks. To ensure the deployment and success of O-RAN, these cybersecurity risks must be identified, and the solutions and practices needed to mitigate them must be utilized.
