    This report explores relevant challenges, vulnerabilities, and attacks to the Network Function Virtualization (NFV) within the 5G network. NFV changes the network security environment due to resource pools based on cloud computing and open network architecture. 60 security challenges grouped in 7 categories have been identified and explored. Among others, this report exposes vulnerabilities, attack scenarios, and their impact on the 5G NFV assets. To address these upcoming challenges, security controls and best practices are put forward in this report, taking into account the particularities of this highly complex, heterogeneous, and volatile environment. In particular, 55 best practices categorized in Technical, Policy, and Organizational categories have been identified.
