In combination with 5G Core, it can facilitate a secure and separate session for device management. However, depending on the industry sector, enterprise customers may have to look at the regulatory compliance that applies to them. Two examples of such industry compliance are Payment Card Industry (PCI), which applies to the handling of credit card information, and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which applies to medical and health records. Enterprise users of FMC may need an additional end-to-end security model to ensure their industry-specific regulatory compliance. Since 5G enables the availability of an access-neutral service, it can be seamlessly made available over 5G New Radio (3GPP access) or Wi-Fi and other wireline access networks (non-3GPP access). This non-3GPP access can take the following forms: Untrusted non-3GPP access networks: This uses Non-3GPP InterWorking Function (N3IWF) Trusted Non-3GPP Access Networks (TNANs): This uses Trusted Non-3GPP Gateway Function (TNGF) Wireline access networks: This uses the RG and the Wireline Access Gateway Function (W-AGF) In this section, we looked at the architectural considerations for FMC. In the next section, let us look at the security considerations for FMC. 5G Fixed Mobile Convergence FMC security considerations Let us look at the security considerations for FMC. Potential adopters of FMC, especially enterprise users, often
