This Recommendation defines a cloud storage architecture in visual surveillance. Cloud storage enables the service users to have ubiquitous, convenient and on-demand network access to a shared pool of the configurable storage resources, which can be rapidly provisioned and released with the minimal management effort or service-provider interaction. Cloud storage can realize flexible and reliable data storage for large-scale visual surveillance, and its components are modularized and allocated dynamically based on the real usage. This Recommendation provides the architecture, entities, reference points and service control flow for cloud storage in visual surveillance.

This recommendation provides an overview of the Internet of things (IoT). It clarifies the concept and scope of the IoT, identifies the fundamental characteristics and high-level requirements of the IoT and describes the IoT reference model. The ecosystem and business models are also provided in an informative appendix.

This draft Recommendation analyses the potential deployment scheme and typical application scenarios of edge computing services, specifies the security threats and requirements specific to the edge computing services and thus establishes the security framework for the operator to safeguard its applications.

5G EC would play a key role on low latency services and traffic off-load services in 5G era. Several prominent factors would enlarge and complex the security risks to the network layer that supports 5G EC and even bring new security challenges to the network security operation. These factors would be the flexible network architectures of 5G, the variable deployment positions of EC, the various application scenarios, different types of users' private networks and access networks, etc. The boundaries among the telecommunication networks and the private networks would be more ambiguous, and the exposure surface would be expanded. Therefore, the security requirements and measures of the network layer including both of the telecommunication networks and the private networks would be recommended as telecommunication operators enjoying the benefit of EC.
