      abstract = {As the fifth-generation (5G) of mobile networks continues to roll out globally, the adoption of Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture introduces new challenges and opportunities for cybersecurity. With the evolution of technology, cyber threats are also becoming increasingly sophisticated and targeted. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive approach to implementing Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) and monitoring in 5G O-RAN to proactively protect against evolving threats. This includes leveraging CTI tools and techniques to gather intelligence on potential threats, monitoring network traffic for anomalies, and implementing proactive security measures to mitigate risks. We also discuss the importance of collaboration between network operators, vendors, and cybersecurity experts to ensure a holistic approach to cybersecurity in 5G O-RAN.},
