ISAC Transforms Wireless Networks into Sensing Platforms
Imagine being able to detect and track hard-to-spot objects, like drones, using the same 5G network you're already connected to - that's the game-changing power of ISAC sensing technology. By leveraging existing 5G transmissions, ISAC turns wireless networks into sensing platforms that can identify and monitor objects in real-time.
US Agencies Accelerate 5G for Mission-Critical Operations
US agencies are revolutionizing 5G for mission-critical operations, shifting its purpose from a consumer upgrade to a robust, secure infrastructure. Top officials from the Navy, Department of War, CISA, and industry leaders shared insights on harnessing 5G's potential at the Federal Executive Forum.
India Weighs Russian Fighter Jet Offer Amid 5G Aerospace Dilemma
Russia's Vladimir Putin has offered India a game-changing deal: joint production of the cutting-edge SU-57 fifth-generation fighter aircraft, with no strings attached. The proposal comes at a critical time for India's air power ambitions.
FCC Expands Foreign Router Ban to Mobile Hotspots
The FCC has expanded its ban on foreign-made routers to include mobile hotspots and home devices that use LTE or 5G connections, affecting U.S. consumers and small businesses. This move now explicitly prohibits the sale of portable Wi-Fi hotspots and home routers manufactured abroad.
SD-WAN and 5G: Must-Have Secure Federal Upgrade
Ready to future-proof federal IT? SD-WAN and 5G together promise resilient, secure, high-performance connectivity for remote missions and edge workloads — if agencies pair them with strong governance, zero-trust security and smart procurement.
Huawei in Britain: Stunning, Risky Collapse
Once a telecoms powerhouse, Huawei’s UK revenue has collapsed by about 85% to roughly £188 million since 2019, a stark sign of five years of export controls, political pressure and market retreat. The result is a messy trade‑off: tighter security comes with higher costs, slower upgrades and tougher choices about Britain’s tech future.
Sni5Gect: Stunning Dangerous 5G Downgrade Risk
Researchers revealed Sni5Gect, an open-source toolkit that can silently force 5G phones onto older, less secure networks — and in some cases crash them — exposing users to interception, tracking and service loss. While the release aims to spur fixes, it also risks putting a powerful downgrade tool into the wrong hands unless vendors and regulators act fast.
sniff 5G traffic: Stunning Risky toolkit exposed
Researchers unveiled Sni5Gect, an open-source toolkit that exploits timing gaps in 5G handshakes to sniff uplink and downlink traffic and force connection downgrades — all without deploying fake masts — raising fresh privacy and security alarms; its release underscores the urgent need for faster patches, stronger handshake protections, and layered defenses like end-to-end encryption.
