Applying Zero Trust at the Wireless Edge: Securing Mixed WPA2 and WPA3 IoT Fleets
By Iftikhar Javed khan with Ajay Lotan Thakur Abstract Zero-trust architecture is a security model that eliminates implicit trust based on network location and instead requires every access request to be continuously authenticated, authorized, and validated before it is granted (NIST SP 800-207), Yet while zero-trust architecture is intentionally network-agnostic, practitioners still need concrete design… Read more
5G in Europe: Broad coverage but 5G SA cloud native core network lags other major markets (Table)
Europe’s 5G market status appears increasingly uneven. The region has achieved broad 5G population coverage, but its transition to the 5G Standalone (SA) core network—and the cloud-native 5G Core required to realize 5G features and capabilities—remains materially behind several major markets. A recent workshop report from the EU-backed European 5G Observatory highlights stakeholder concern that… Read more
