Open Networking & Edge Summit 2020

Technologies such as Internet-of-Things (IoT) and 5G networks transform homes into digital living spaces. While the benefits of smart homes are many, today's home automation systems bear many security flaws and vulnerabilities which will become amplified through the scale of 5G networks.
Securing the smart home will require the integration of consumer security technology in the telecom edge cloud. According to the 5G virtualized access network architecture, home networks will be distributed between devices in the home and services in the telecom edge cloud.
An open operator platform on the edge represents a significant business opportunity to offer security services to smart home users.
These security services are aligned to the attack surface of smart homes and essentially analyze traffic for malicious indicators to respond to attacks on behalf of the user.
This talk discusses the required security services for smart homes and how they can be deployed in the edge cloud.
