Abstract - One crucial component of the deployment of 5G technology is 5G cellular network security. The way we use and engage with technology is about to undergo a radical change thanks to the fifth generation of mobile networks, whichalsopresentsnewsecurityproblemsandopportunities. Since 5G networks are expected to be more intricate and interconnectedthanthoseofpreviousgenerations,strongand all-encompassing security measures will be necessary to guarantee that confidential and safe sensitive data is transferredoverthe networkfromcyber-attacks.Itisthejoint responsibilityofnetworkoperators,devicemanufacturers,and service providers to ensure the security of 5G networks. Network administrators must enforce stringent security measuresandmakesurethatsecurity isincorporatedintothe network architecture from the beginning. It is the responsibilityofdevicemanufacturerstoguaranteethattheir products are patched quickly, have the most recent security software and hardware, and are safe. In addition to putting policies in place to identify and handle security problems, service providers need to assume accountability for the security of the apps and services they provide.
