Cyberspace Security and Mobile Network Technologies

This two-part course addresses cyberspace. Cybersecurity is about balancing risks and opportunities in cyberspace, the global
interconnection of digital networks. Cybersecurity is designed to protect digital property,
personal information, and business transactions from accidents, errors, and deliberate
attacks. 5G is the new generation of mobile communications, standardized by 3GPP, which complies with the requirements established by ITU-R for the new generation IMT-2020 of International Mobile Telecommunications. This new technology enhances mobile communication networks, which will be able to offer high-quality services customized to user needs, providing higher data rates, ultra-high reliability, extremely low latencies and ubiquitous massive connectivity, all of them by networks extremely efficient in the use of energy and radio spectrum resources. 5G also opens the path to a number of use cases in many different economic sectors, which can leverage 5G networks to increase their use of ICTs, thus contributing to the digital transformation of the economy and the society.
