The fifth generation of mobile networks unrolls with it, substantial increases to bandwidth and a tremendous expansion in the number of connections whilst reducing latency. In simple terms, the 5G technology implies faster connections and greater communication capability. The fifth-generation network (5G) rollout is the result of years of rigorous research, development and planning. Nonetheless, researchers underscore that 5G network may have flaws and vulnerabilities that exists within the technology. The integration of resource constrained IoT devices with 5G has created numerous threat surfaces. This paper discusses the vulnerability surrounding the 5G communication network, particularly highlighting critical issue relating to location-tracking and network downgrading. Threats inherited from the previous generation networks as well as the unique challenges specifically targeting 5G networks have been …
