Abstract
A zero trust architecture can continuously monitor and verify code uploaded at the edge of 5G networks, so as to automatically identify security inconsistencies between security requirements and the performance of a given system.
Claims17
A computer-implemented method performed at an edge of a core network, the method comprising:
- identifying an application that is connected to the core network;
- extracting design attributes associated with one or more specifications of the application;
- extracting implementation attributes associated with a code tool of the application;
- monitoring the edge of the core network so as to identify monitored attributes associated with the application;
- and
- comparing the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes with one another so as determine whether there is an inconsistency between the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes.
3 more elements
A module within a core network, the module comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the module to:
- identify an application that is connected to the core network;
- extract design attributes associated with one or more specifications of the application;
- extract implementation attributes associated with a code tool of the application;
- monitor an edge of the core network so as to identify monitored attributes associated with the application;
- and
- compare the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes with one another so as determine whether there is an inconsistency between the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes.
6 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when processed by a computing system cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
- identifying an application that is connected to a core network;
- extracting design attributes associated with one or more specifications of the application;
- extracting implementation attributes associated with a code tool of the application;
- monitoring an edge of the core network so as to identify monitored attributes associated with the application;
- and
- comparing the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes with one another so as determine whether there is an inconsistency between the design attributes, implementation attributes, and monitored attributes.
