111 The Roll Out of 5G 5G means more than just access to 1080p Twitch streams while you’re on the go (have you checked out lara6683? She’s awesome). Advanced AI in devices, combined with cloud computing and now edge computing, will lead to the creation of a distributed computing environment connecting billions of devices and leading to a new generation of consumer and business applications. The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) divides 5G’s use cases into three main categories: · Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) · Massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) · Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) The first of those (eMBB) will give you faster access to cat videos, but the other two are worth mentioning as well! At the micro level, mMTC will extend the Internet of Things to a massive number of new devices, supporting roughly ten times as many devices in an area than are presently supported. At a more macro level, URLLC will allow for “mission-critical” communications, enabling industrial automation, drone control, new medical applications, and autonomous vehicles. By the end of 2020, most countries around the world will have some form of limited access to 5G, and half of the United States is expected to have access. Considering the number of cities in the United States that currently have access is… barely more than 20… that means this is going to be a fast rollout. With speeds increasing by 10-20x, and the number of connected devices rapidly proliferating, the implications for our daily lives could be massive. However, some serious cybersecurity concerns remain. With the multiplication of connected devices, there will be an even greater number of vulnerabilities under threat from bad actors. At the same time, SecOps teams will find themselves inundated with a flood of data, as the proliferation of devices compounds the number of connections exponentially. Combine the sheer increase in volume along with a dramatic boost in speed, and it becomes clear that cybersecurity teams will need to increasingly rely on software such as SOAR platforms, which orchestrate and automate responses to security events. Through the usage of such platforms, SecOps teams will be able to proactively program playbooks to respond to events, allowing analysts to turn their high-level knowledge into automated routines relieving them of the mundane – and increasingly impossible – job of providing triage to every event or threat that comes through. Conclusion I know how much we in the tech community love to speculate on the future. My fingers are crossed that the singularity is near, and I, for one, welcome our new Skynet overlords. But as much fun as such speculations are, our cybersecurity practices, unfortunately, need to be a bit more grounded. These three issues are not far flung, they are not Jules Verne, they are not Heinlein, Asimov, Dick, or Herbert – these are concerns we need to focus on now, these are happening in 2020.
