The fifth generation of mobile networks (5G) offers new and advanced services such as virtual/augmented reality (AR/VR), high-definition video streaming, remote surgery, Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cars with strict requirements. The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has introduced Multiple Access Edge Computing (MEC) for efficient and fast data processing in mobile networks. MEC is a key technology that enables these new services by deploying multiple appliances with computing and storage capabilities at the edge of the network, close to end users. Among other technological requirements, security is an important factor in realizing MEC deployment. In this article, while reviewing the 5G architecture and then focusing on the MEC architecture, threats, vulnerabilities and security solutions provided by researchers and scientific authorities in this field are examined. Finally, by evaluating the impact and probability of success of threats in 5G, we analyze the risk in order to provide a good ranking of threats. The results of our studies and research in this article will help secure the 5G network and deploy security solutions.
