  Sixth generation systems are expected to face new security challenges, while
opening up new frontiers towards context awareness in the wireless edge. The
workhorse behind this projected technological leap will be a whole new set of
sensing capabilities predicted for 6G devices, in addition to the ability to
achieve high precision localization. The combination of these enhanced traits
can give rise to a new breed of context-aware security protocols, following the
quality of security (QoSec) paradigm. In this framework, physical layer
security solutions emerge as competitive candidates for low complexity,
low-delay and low-footprint, adaptive, flexible and context aware security
schemes, leveraging the physical layer of the communications in genuinely
cross-layer protocols, for the first time.
