Forum for Uniting Security Experts in 5G
Mobile networks play a critical role in our interconnected world, enabling seamless communication, data exchange and access to a wide range of services. One of the most important considerations in the area of mobile networks is security, given the increasing reliance on these networks for various aspects of our daily lives. As mobile devices become more integral to our personal and professional activities, the protection of sensitive information and the prevention of unauthorised access have become paramount. Establishing a dedicated forum where professionals from across industry, academia and government can come together to discuss the current state of mobile network security is critical to addressing emerging threats and vulnerabilities. This collaborative platform facilitates the exchange of insights, research findings and best practices, fostering a collective effort to improve the robustness of mobile network security. FUSE5G aims to foster a collaborative mobile network security community in Europe by providing a dedicated platform for researchers and industry professionals to share insights, discuss emerging threats, and collectively enhance the security measures of 5G networks.
The FUSE5G initiative will be kickstarted with a community event in Bochum, Germany on Tuesday February 4th 2025. Presenters from industry and academia will share a varied perspective on developments in mobile network security. The program is outlined below and includes ample opportunity to network with fellow security professionals. Participation is free of charge but we kindly request that you register upfront in view of limited capacity.
