5G technology is considered the solution to the vast demand for services not only from ordinary users, but also the industry. With speeds and latency far exceeding those provided by its predecessor, it enables internet access to users and IoT devices, cars, or industrial machines, communicating in real time. As securing the information and the user privacy has become one of the biggest challenges, a considerable effort has been made for its improvement. Therefore, one of the objectives of this thesis is to display the overall architecture of the 5G. Furthermore, by using a tool that helps the interception and the analysis of radio messages, an investigation will be conducted for better understanding the current phase of the 5G implementation in Greece for some mobile network operators.
