Verticals in 5G MEC-Use Cases and Security Challenges

5G is the fifth-generation cellular network satisfying requirements IMT-2020 (International Mobile Telecommunications-2020) of International Telecommunication Union. operators started using it worldwide in 2019. Generally, achieves exceptionally high values performance parameters access and transmission. The application edge servers has been proposed to facilitate implementing such 5G, resulting MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) technology. Moreover, optimize services for specific business applications, concept vertical industries proposed. In this article, we study how technology affects functioning MEC-based services. We consider twelve representative by presenting their essential characteristics, threats, vulnerabilities, known attacks. Furthermore, analyze functional properties, give efficiency patterns identify effect applying on resultant network's quality determine expected security requirements. As a result research, impact classified threats empowered most sensitive cases focus protection against attacks first place.
