The Title of the PhD is: “Access Control for M2M Infrastructures in 5G Networks"
Supervisors have been Prof. Dr. Thomas Magedanz (Technische Universität Berlin), Prof. Dr. Küpper (Technische Universität Berlin) und Prof. Dr. Noel Crespi (Telecom SudParis, Frankreich).

The main contribution of the work is the specification of a Cross-Layer Access Control Framework for M2M Infrastructures using 5G Core Networks by interconnecting the Management Plane of the M2M Communication and the one of the Mobile Core Networks for Trustful Handover of the M2M devices
between Security Domains that are running on Core Network Slices. The concept and design of the prototype implementation address common requirements from different M2M vertical domains and are general enough to be further used in other ones.
