Abstract
Resistance to vulnerabilities from timing-based side-channel attacks on 5G network slices that share underlying physical infrastructure and resources may be enhanced by selectively imposing time-based constraints on service provisioning and data handling to obscure data-driven time variations that occur during workload execution in a slice that can leak secret information. By preventing timing leakage from the 5G network slices, an attacker cannot observe execution latencies to thereby infer the constituency of workload characteristics. In addition, the attacker cannot create contention for shared resources on its own slice to observe an extent to which the shared resources are utilized by a targeted slice.
