We’re just one week away from ! Don’t miss NextNav COO Sanyogita Shamsunder as she joins industry leaders Rear Admiral (Ret.) David Simpson, Mike Loomis of Nokia, and Adam Eldert of Fairfax County VA Public Safety, for a panel discussion on “Meeting U.S. Government 5G Security & Resilience Standards.”

The panel will explore how collaboration between industry, government, and regulatory bodies is essential for establishing and enforcing robust 5G security standards. Beyond traditional cybersecurity measures, the focus will be on building resilience into 5G networks—through redundancy, diversity, and rapid response capabilities to mitigate risks like spoofing, jamming attacks, natural disasters, and other unforeseen challenges.

A key element of this resilience is the integration of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) systems. By embedding security, PNT integration, and resilience into the design, deployment, and operation of 5G networks, we can safeguard critical communications infrastructure and address pressing national security concerns.
