DATE: 15 – 17 November 2020
TIME: 09:00 to 18:00 CET
With the growth in 5G proof-of-concepts and early deployment, 5G market adoption and usage direction are increasing and being set in place as operators prepare for massive deployment.
This 5G Training Session (TS-501) will help security and telecom professionals get an understanding of the key concepts of 5G, their security, the implementation of such architectures and the impact in terms of related risks.
All trainees will receive the full deck of the training materials at the conclusion of the session.
