This in-depth research examines the changing convergence of IoT and 5G with a particular emphasis on security. This literature review travels through the already available information and prepares the way for an extensive examination of threats and vulnerabilities unique to the era of 5G. Further, the finding of the research uncovers cybersecurity issues in the wider spectrum of the Internet of Things (IoT) setting, while shedding light on novel challenges surfacing within the context of a 5G (Fifth Generation) based IoT ecosystem. The research discusses the vulnerabilities of IoT devices as well as how the proliferation of 5G networks enhances them. This paper outlines practical security suggestions that stress the importance of cryptography, data authenticity tools, and hardy communication protocols that can strengthen nodes in the IoT 5G network confronted with such challenges. It develops more insightful case studies which illustrate what their proposals would work on i.e., how effective these solutions would be. The analysis concludes by advocating for a dynamic security model to maintain a healthy harmony between IoT and 5G amidst changing technologies.
