Security in 5G networks is currently supported using several functions. Given the advantages of such a system, this article explores the functional security and trust for the 6G ecosystem with ultra-connectivity. Several associated challenges, application-specific domains, and consumer issues related to 6G security are discussed. The article highlights the network security-by-design and trust-by-design principles and performance expectations from the security protocols in supporting handover in an ultra-connected scenario. Finally, potential research directions are presented for a road towards the 6G ecosystem.</p>}, number={4}, journal={EAI Endorsed Transactions on Industrial Networks and Intelligent Systems}, author={Sharma, Vishal}, year={2022}, month={Dec.}, pages={e5} }
