MITRE’s ‘FiGHT’ Framework for 5G
MITRE FiGHT is currently the only open threat framework for 5G systems. The MITRE FiGHT framework can play a significant role in establishing defenses against adversarial and unauthorized behaviors in 5G networks. With its comprehensive repository of techniques and tactics employed by threat actors, the framework enables organizations to proactively identify and comprehend potential vulnerabilities within their 5G systems. It allows security teams to align and map their defenses with specific attack vectors, prioritizing their efforts on critical areas. Additionally, the FiGHT framework facilitates threat hunting and detection by providing a standardized language and classification system to describe adversary behaviors, fostering effective collaboration and information sharing among security practitioners. By leveraging the MITRE FiGHT framework, organizations can enhance their incident response capabilities, fortify the security posture of their 5G networks, and safeguard against emerging threats and unauthorized activities.
