Keeping Networks Secure: The Open Way
summary
Argues that open source accelerates 5G standards by creating a feedback loop between implementations and specs and shows concrete security practices: industry incidents (GitHub, Log4j, SolarWinds), a survey finding 98% use open source and 95% worry about it but <50% use SBOMs, and large-scale analysis of ~600,000 SCA data points. Recommends SBOMs integrated into CI/CD using SPDX or CycloneDX, LFX security dashboards for continuous tracking, OpenSSF training and badges, and defenses for risks like network slicing, SDN controller compromise, and massive IoT attack surface.
