Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is unleashing fundamental innovation in the way organizations buy, deploy, and operate network infrastructures. By leveraging open standards and commodity hardware, NFV delivers cost savings, enhanced flexibility, improved performance, and more. However, without the right safeguards, organizations can also see their vulnerabilities increase when they move to a Virtualized Network Functions (VNF) architecture. This white paper offers a detailed look at the unique security implications of adopting NFV approaches, and it provides a number of best practices to employ to ensure sensitive data and transmissions remain secure in these environments.

In today’s world, enterprises are becoming increasingly distributed and autonomous. The applications and services they deliver are increasingly demanding high bandwidth, as well as reliable, deterministic communications over wide areas under different conditions and multiple networks. Enterprises and enterprise networks are increasingly demanding more spectrum, more bandwidth and lower latency. Vertical industries each present their own set of unique requirements on communications networks and no one technology or operating model will meet the needs of the enterprise. Instead, the enterprise/ private network of the future can expect to be a multi-network that incorporates elements drawn from traditional enterprise models as well as from public mobile network models.

5G network slicing is an ideal choice to enable smart grid services. It divides the 5G network into logically isolated networks, where each one could be seen as a slice. 5G network slicing allows the power grid to flexibly customize specific slices with different network functions and different service level agreement (SLA) assurances according to the different requirements of the various services on a power grid.

Qualcomm said it expects 200 million 5G smartphones to be sold in 2020 and that will make it the world’s largest supplier of mobile phone chips. Qualcomm Chief Financial Officer Akash Palkhiwala said on an investor call there would be “two inflexion points” for 5G chips next year. One would be in the spring when firms like Samsung and several Chinese handset makers tend to introduce new phones. “The second point will be in the Autumn when another set of flagship devices will adopt 5G.” Fall is when Apple and Alphabet launch new models. Qualcomm’s 5G market estimate, disclosed during a fourth quarter earnings report, is the first from the company
