Cybersecurity solutions for Telecommunications
Telecommunication providers and critical infrastructures need to assure security and trusted communication for their subscribers, customers, and stakeholders.
The world has experienced a phenomenal increase in mobile devices, smart IoT devices, data traffic subscribers, and SIM connections. This means that network operators now have a far greater spectrum of services and in turn, need to carry a much higher data load. Simultaneously, this also increases the attack surface for cyber-attacks and eavesdropping attempts.
Mobile network providers need to fulfill these commercially viable services and ongoing demands whilst guaranteeing a reliable, secure network to all stakeholders - participants and subscribers. Furthermore, the telecommunications industry is a critical infrastructure that needs to be designed to withstand various types of cyber-attacks.
Data security, privacy by design, and infrastructure durability are imperative - assuring customer protection, data privacy, strong authentication, device security, and service reliability. Given the severe consequences of a security breach and damage to reputation, it’s critical to build on reliable and proven cybersecurity solutions for telecommunication in unison with secure 5G to protect against espionage, data theft, and downtime.
In addition to ensuring secure networks, providers of telecommunication services are required to support law enforcement agencies in their fight against crime and terrorism. To meet these obligations, network operators and telecommunications service providers must implement interception facilities in their networks.
The legal framework of lawful interception (LI) is stipulated by national laws and regulations, and international standards constitute the foundation for the technical implementation and for the cooperation between law enforcement agencies and service providers.
For years, Utimaco has been a leader in cybersecurity, providing solutions for various cybersecurity disciplines which add security to telecommunications networks, applications, devices, and data. We deliver turn-key compliance solutions for fixed and mobile network operators. Our solutions help telecom operators and Internet service providers in meeting their legal obligations while ensuring the highest level of privacy protection.
Use cases for Telecommunications
Lawful Interception Solutions for Mobile Network Operators
Mobile network operators may be required to provide Lawful Interception capabilities for authorized law enforcement agencies. Comprehensive Lawful Interception solution for any kind of wireless networks up to 5G and for other wireless access technologies, such as WLAN and WiMAX.
Lawful Interception Solutions for Fixed Network Operators
More and more communication services rely on the Internet, respectively on the Internet Protocol (IP). Such public communication services are commonly subject to lawful interception regulations.
Lawful Interception Solutions for Internet Service Providers
More and more communication services rely on the Internet, respectively on the Internet Protocol (IP). Such public communication services are commonly subject to lawful interception regulations.
Lawful Interception Solutions for Law Enforcement Agencies
Telecommunication service providers and network operators are required to support law enforcement agencies (LEA) with authorized requests to identify, monitor, and instantly deliver all of the electronic communications of specified individuals and groups. The plethora of dispersed LI systems however raises some considerable challenges for law enforcement agencies that need immediate access to telecommunications data of intercept targets.
