Modern topics in telecommunications and radio engineering 10 – Intelligent security

Yksittäinen kurssi

Max amount of FITech students: 20

Persons without a valid study right at a Finnish university or university of applied sciences have preference to this course.

In this course we will introduce the requirements for security in future self-sustaining wireless networks that are defined with native, embedded artificial intelligence (AI) capability, where new security paradigms are crucial to address novel and unprecedented threat vectors. We will cover the opportunities of introducing intelligence into the security definitions by presenting novel approaches from the perspective of different layers.

Course contents

  • Challenges towards 6G security including 6G vision, architecture, intelligence and trustworthiness.
  • Tools for achieving intelligence in network security: ENISA recommendations, ORAN security, proactive and reactive network security, federated learning, moving target defense and explainable AI algorithms.
  • Physical layer security: motivation and roadmap.
  • Confidentiality issues and techniques.
  • Physical layer authentication mechanisms, classical system and stages and ML-based solutions.
  • Secret Key Generation: SKG standard procedure, secret key rate and protection against active attacks.

Learning outcomes

After successfully completing this course, the student can

  • identify the threat landscape towards future wireless networks.
  • differentiate physical layer security and network security techniques, their challenges and limitations, and their practical aspects.
  • explain different intelligent security approaches, their challenges and strengths.
  • evaluate the performance of security solutions based on physical layer security and network security.
  • apply machine learning tools and provide their explainability for the design of intelligent security solutions.
