5G in Automotive: Safer, Smarter Mobility
Automotive digitization now hinges on 5G’s ability to deliver reliable, low-latency, and scalable connectivity that 4G/LTE cannot sustain for safety-critical use cases. Advanced driver assistance, cooperative perception, and remote operations require millisecond-class response and deterministic reliability across dense traffic conditions. 5G Standalone (SA) with Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), improved positioning, and enhanced uplink meets these thresholds, enabling vehicles and infrastructure to exchange time-sensitive data continuously. This is the foundation for C-V2X, high-fidelity telematics, and closed-loop control that 4G/LTE struggles to support consistently. 5G enables dynamic traffic orchestration, energy-aware routing for EVs, and advanced safety services that can reduce incidents and congestion.

Google fined US$36M in Australia over Android default search deals

Google fined USM in Australia over Android default search deals
Google will pay a US$35.8 million (A$55 million) penalty and change how it structures Android default search agreements with Australian carriers and OEMs. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) alleged that Googles contracts with Telstra and Optus from December 2019 to March 2021 blocked rival search engines on carrier-sold Android devices via platform-wide default settings and revenue-sharing incentives. Google admitted the conduct likely lessened competition and agreed to court-enforceable undertakings to remove restrictions that mandated Google Search as the exclusive, out-of-the-box option across search access points (browser defaults, widgets, and in-phone settings).

Federated Wireless recommends to Prioritize the 4 GHz Band for 6G

Federated Wireless recommends to Prioritize the 4 GHz Band for 6G
The 4.44.94 GHz range offers the cleanest mix of technical performance, policy feasibility, and global alignment to move the U.S. ahead in 6G. Midband is where 6G will scale, and 4 GHz sits in the sweet spot. A contiguous 500 MHz block supports wide channels (100 MHz+), strong uplink, and macro coverage comparable to C-Band, but with more spectrum headroom. That translates into better spectral efficiency and a lower total cost per bit for nationwide deployments while still enabling dense enterprise and edge use cases.

Palo Alto Networks Leads the Way with Quantum-Ready, Unified Security Fabric

Palo Alto Networks Leads the Way with Quantum-Ready, Unified Security Fabric
Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 12.1 Orion steps into this gap with a quantum-ready roadmap, a unified multicloud security fabric, expanded AI-driven protections and a new generation of next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) designed for data centers, branches and industrial edge. The release also pushes management into a single operational plane via Strata Cloud Manager, targeting lower operating cost and faster incident response. PAN-OS 12.1 automatically discovers workloads, applications, AI assets and data flows across public cloud and hybrid environments to eliminate blind spots. It continuously assesses posture, flags misconfigurations and exposures in real time and deploys protections in one click across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.
