This article in the cyberspace for the layperson series part III concerns the delay in the 5G rollout.
ATT and Verizon have delayed the 5G Rollout because of concerns the signals could interfere with respect to airplane communications.
There are cybersecurity and aviation communications issues with respect to the Rollout of the 5G Network,

Yes, there is a part I.
Consistent with our goal to expose the general public to cyberspace, and the emerging trends and developments in that field, we are providing this list of short videos with links correlated to the textbook: J. Kremling and A. Parker, Cyberspace, Cybersecurity & Cybercrime [Sage Publications 2018] Link: https://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/cyberspace-cybersecurity-and-cybercrime/book252165 which should facilitate your understanding of those topics

“Are 5G Networks Setting the Stage for a New Wave of Cyber Attacks,” wrote Steve Durbin in Forbes [August 10, 2021]. Link
Apparently, according to Durbin they are.
This article will be digested and annotated as follows:
Durbin states: “[a]t its core, 5G technology is all about blazing speeds, massive data volumes and interconnectivity [1] at a scale never witnessed before.”
[1] interconnectivity defined: Link: https://www.definitions.net/definition/interconnectivity
Durbin states further: ***rollng out 5G means investing heaps in structurally network hardware that can support the velocity and volume that 5G promises.”
He notes: “in addition to the significant capex [2], virtualization [3] of traditionally hardware embedded network functions [which open] new exploitation opportunities for malicious actors.”
[2] capex defined: Link
[3] virtualization defined: Link
“With 5G the stakes are higher than ever because 5G could soon become the backbone of critical national infrastructure. A recent report [4] . . . on the information and communication technology industry uncovered $31 Trillion addressable consumer revenues that will flow over 5G networks by 2030. Service providers could secure $3,7 Trillion of this driven by 5G connectivity,” explained Durbin.
[4] Report by Ericsson Consumer Lab and Omdia Link
Durbin observes:”
“This tech has already enabled latency-sensitive [5] mission-critical industrial control systems that run smart grids, smart cities and smart factories. Autonomous systems like self-driving cars and automatic pilot avionics also rely on the speed, capacity and reliability of 5G networks. Any disruption to these systems and applications can quickly fail.
[5] latency-sensitive is defined as follows [GOOGLE Search]:
A latency-sensitive application is a application which is supposed to respond fast on specific events. Latency is defined as the time between the occurrence of an event and its handling. There was a time when it took minutes or even hours for us to send a simple email. … This is where latency sensitivity comes into play.
With respect to cyber attacks, Durbin notes:
[S[ecurity often takes a back seat when speed and volume are the driving forces
5G differs significantly from its predecessors in that it centers on software-defined networking, network virtualization and network functions virtualization. Virtualized network core and radio access networks allow network slicing for segregation and optimal resource allocation for different types of devices and services. But on the downside, virtualized network segments are prone to software vulnerabilities that attackers can leverage to move beyond the virtualization layer and into the physical layer.
