The five articles in this special section focus on novel research contributions, demonstration results, and standardization efforts on 5G network security, privacy and trust. Currently it is expected that the generation (5G) wireless systems will soon provide rich ubiquitous communication infrastructure with wide a range of high-quality services. It is foreseen that 5G communications will offer significantly greater data bandwidth and much improved capability for networking, resulting in unfaltering user experiences for services such as: massive content streaming, telepresence, virtual/augmented reality, crowded area communications, user-centric computing, smart personal networks, Internet of Things (IoT), smart buildings, smart cities, etc. 5G systems are currently at the center of attention of academia, industry, and governments worldwide as they drive many new requirements for diff erent network capabilities. As 5G aims at utilizing many promising network technologies, such as Software Defined Networking (SDN), Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), Information Centric Network (ICN), Network Slicing, Cloud Computing, MEC, etc., supporting a huge number of connected devices integrating the above mentioned advanced technologies and innovating new techniques will surely bring tremendous challenges for security, privacy and trust.
