The National Science Foundation awarded $749,186 under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program to the University of Colorado Boulder for the 5G Hidden Operations Through Securing Traffic (GHOST) project. The project aims to deliver four layers of security to enable secure operations over untrusted 5G networks. This includes protecting devices from network compromise, anonymizing user identities and locations, obscuring traffic analysis through "ghost" and "false flag" traffic injection, and modeling traffic patterns. The GHOST technology seeks to benefit users of any network by securing communications and disguising activities over networks operated by potentially hostile entities. If successful, the project outcomes will yield security technologies and techniques to protect users and enable continued operations in challenging network environments, in support of the NSF's mission to advance science and engineering innovation.
