5G will likely be a niche technology for years
Despite the constant excited chatter surrounding 5G mobile technology, researchers believe that 5G will remain a relatively niche technology until 2025. Professional services firm, Deloitte, predicts 5G technology to make up only 14 percent of the total number of mobile, non-Internet of Things connections worldwide by 2025. Until then, the current 4G/LTE networks will remain the predominant mobile communications technology for the foreseeable future. However, despite the gloomy forecast for 5G’s initial adoption rate, Deloitte emphasized that it is the “connectivity technology of the future.”

Essentially, ‘shadow IT’ is the usage of unmanaged applications in a business environment. While they aren’t malicious by nature, they can do some real damage to your company’s security efforts. This is because not all apps are created equally, therefore the unmanaged app could be using poor coding techniques which can lead to vulnerabilities that may affect the device, other apps or information sent over the network.
