The power industry has a large number of 5G communication requirements, especially on the side of the distribution communication network. There are many points and a large number of devices need to be monitored or controlled in real time, and 5G could meet the power demand well. However, different from the existing power backbone communication network, 5G's MEC brings convenience and high real-time services on the one hand, but on the other hand, because MEC sinks part of the network's business capabilities and computing capabilities closer to the user side, it faces risks such as large attack exposure, poor microservice isolation, and difficulty in ensuring the security of the underlying data. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out security protection research that adapts to 5G MEC. Based on the characteristics of power 5G MEC, this article proposes an endogenous security protection framework that adapts to power 5G MEC, which can effectively resist various security threats.
