Abstract

Provided herein are systems and methods for preventing network attacks in a network slice. In particular, security requirements of a network slice instance are retrieved and specific security policies to be applied to each of multiple constituent network slice subnet instances within the network slice instance are identified based on the security requirements. A deployment of one or more security function instances for each subnet instance configured according to a corresponding security policy is then facilitated.
