MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641024457 A) filed by Sr University, Warangal, Telangana, on March 2, for 'sdn-based policy engine for cybersecurity threat detection and mitigation in 5g core networks.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Elamaran E; Dr. Sandip Bhattacharya; Dr. Saptarshi Gupta; and Dr. Dharmbir Prasad.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention presents an SDN-based policy engine designed to enhance cybersecurity in 5G Core networks defined by 3GPP. The system integrates semantic message inspection, state-aware validation, and sliding window traffic analytics to detect 5G-specific threats beyond traditional packet inspection methods. A centralized SDN controller dynamically evaluates interface legitimacy, UE authentication state, and slice isolation compliance. Upon detecting anomalies such as abnormal signaling frequency or unauthorized protocol usage, automated mitigation policies are enforced in real time. The proposed framework ensures secure, scalable, and adaptive protection tailored to the Service-Based Architecture of next-generation mobile networks."
