Summary: With the development of the IMT-2020/5G system, vertical services have become key scenarios for IMT-2020/5G. In vertical services for smart factories and smart cities that use an IMT-2020/5G network, many user devices use vertical services with massive machine-type communications and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). To support vertical use cases which require ultra-reliability and low latency, some IMT-2020/5G core network functions might be deployed at local sites that are closer to vertical users, while other IMT-2020/5G core network functions are still deployed at a central site. Compared with the IMT-2020/5G core network deployed as a whole, the IMT-2020/5G core network operating in such deployment may face specific security threats. In order to ensure the security of the operation of the IMT-2020/5G core network to support vertical services, specific security threats need to be analysed and relevant security requirements need to be specified. This Recommendation aims to analyse data security threats, network security threats and physical security threats specific to the operation of the IMT-2020/5G core network deployed at both a central site and local sites to support vertical services, and specify the relevant security requirements.
