Abstract
DISH Network recently announced a collaboration with Intel to deliver a pioneering, cloud-native, O-RAN based, 5G network. Palo Alto Networks was announced as the security provider. Based on the US government executive order to improve cybersecurity, service providers are implementing new strategies to address evolving threats. Henry Yu, Director of Network Security and Architecture at DISH Network will highlight their strategy for protecting data in use, in flight, and at rest. Lessons learned during implementation will be described. This approach can be a model for the mobile industry.
