Edge computing is strongly related to 5G and UPF is the data connection point between the MEC system and 5G Network architecture. The sinking of 5G network user plane brings threats such as illegal eavesdropping, which may seriously threaten the data security in edge computing. The edge node has unique features itself and whether in the physical environment or the network, the data security will be an important problem that the edge nodes need to face. Therefore, the recommendation analyses the edge computing data security mainly from these two aspects and provides relative data security challenges and threats and data security guidelines for Edge Computing. This recommendation could help to address the data security issues in Edge Computing implementation

SG20 develops international standards to enable the coordinated development of IoT technologies, including machine-to-machine communications and ubiquitous sensor networks. A central part of this study is the standardization of end-to-end architectures for IoT, and mechanisms for the interoperability of IoT applications and datasets employed by various vertically oriented industry sectors.

Recommendation ITU-T H.644.4 specifies a functional architecture for mobile/multi-access edge computing (MEC) enabled content delivery network (MEC-CDN). The functions and functional blocks within this functional architecture and the related reference points are specified in this Recommendation for matching the requirements in Recommendation ITU-T F.743.10. Particularly, this Recommendation also provides the deployment of virtualized content delivery network (CDN) service and the interworking between virtualized CDN functionalities and MEC management system, within a MEC-CDN ecosystem. In addition, a containerized solution of MEC-CDN is given in this Recommendation, followed by the basic information flows.

Recommendation ITU-T F.743.10 specifies the general framework, scenarios and requirements for mobile edge computing- (MEC-)enabled content delivery networks (CDNs). Recommendation ITU_T F.743.10 also specifies the requirements for MEC functions on which a CDN edge node relies. The deployment of a CDN edge node with an MEC system is described in the general framework. Several use cases are introduced in Recommendation ITU-T F.743.10 to illustrate the usage of MEC-enabled CDN.
