About
Even though 5G networks are not yet fully deployed, the design of future 6G is already ongoing. The increasing volume of cyberattacks and their severity make Security a top consideration in 6G design. On the other hand, users are increasingly aware of the risk associated with certain services in terms of privacy.
Learn MoreThis Summer School will focus on how to make 6G networks more secure while following privacy-friendly approaches. We will review concepts such as:
- Trust in Networks
- User Privacy
- Advancements in technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing
Although it is true that technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Quantum Computing have the potential to significantly enhance the level of security in various fields, it is also important to consider that their implementation entails certain risks and challenges.
