As enterprises bring Wi-Fi and Private 5G together to support increasingly critical operations, security must evolve with the network. Different approaches to identity, policy, and telemetry can create complexity and security blind spots across the converged environment.

The WBA Enterprise Security for Converged Private 5G and Wireless Networks report provides practical guidance for securing Wi-Fi and Private 5G as a unified enterprise network. It explores how Zero Trust principles, unified identity and policy management, centralized security visibility, network segmentation, and AI/ML-driven analytics can help enterprises detect threats, strengthen resilience, and protect critical IT and operational technology environments.

For enterprise leaders, security teams, network architects, operators, and technology providers, the report provides a valuable framework for building secure, resilient, and future-ready converged wireless networks. This Technical Blueprint provides a foundation for the continued evolution of converged Wi-Fi and Private 5G security.

As enterprise deployments mature, the focus will increasingly shift from integration to optimization, leveraging automation, advanced analytics, and continuous improvement in threat detection and response.
