Summary:
|
The definition of basic network slicing technology functions and processes has laid a solid foundation for the first wave of IMT-2020 deployment and commercial use of network slicing services. As an end-to-end logical network that is customized on demand, slicing can provide differentiation security capabilities.
First, the IMT-2020 network slicing provides the supporting security measures for the differentiated network implementation. Second, the IMT-2020 network supports some optional security measures at the slice level. Some security measures can also provide multiple security options and operators may own different security resources which may bring different degrees of security guarantee or non-security performance.
Slice customers also have specific security requirements and may request customized network slices with different security protection levels from slice operators. There exist some challenges for both slice customers and slice operators in choosing the security capabilities of their slices such as management cost and definition inconsistency, etc.
This Recommendation provides a description of differentiated IMT-2020 network slice security capabilities and guidance in classifying these security capabilities to aid the IMT-2020 ecosystem in selecting network slice security capabilities.
