Two experts in 5G technology and cybersecurity, Rahim Tafazolli and Alan Woodward of the University of Surrey, spoke to Insider about the key steps organizations should take to develop a secure 5G network. Understand your needs and hire the right staffThe first thing to check is whether you need a 5G network, and if so, how you should scope it. Evaluate public versus private 5G optionsIf you don't have the full complement of telecom skills required, it's much safer to rely on those who do to provide you with a secure 5G network. A public 5G network slice from a mobile operator may, in that instance, be better than a private, on-premise 5G network that you have to maintain in-house. Implement monitoring and automationOperating a 5G network requires extensive telecom expertise that many enterprises lack.

Data handed over a silver platterMarwa Fatafta, an analyst with digital rights group Access Now, described Saudi Arabia as a country with a "dismal" human rights record. "Have they really [Google and Microsoft] investigated how they plan to mitigate potential human rights abuses or privacy violations, building such infrastructure?"

The internet contributes 1.6 billion annual tons in greenhouse gas emissions. Now, Google and Microsoft want to add AI to their search enginesThis would add to global carbon emissions, experts told Wired. Microsoft will implement ChatGPT in its existing search engine Bing, while Google announced the launch of an "experimental conversational AI service" named Bard. Martin Bouchard, founder of data center company QScale, told Wired that AI would result in "at least four or five times more computing per search." Insider senior tech correspondent Adam Rogers wrote about how AI-produced search engine responses could produce answers with misinformation or faulty logic that can be harder to detect by searchers.
