NOKIA: PROTECTING TELCOS
FROM CYBERTHREATS WITH
MODERN APPROACHES
With telcos possessing valuable assets as well as being the spine of national
communications they are under increasing threat from cybercriminals, Nokia offers
them a range of solutions to ensure their security. Moiz Baig, Security Solutions
at Nokia MEA, discusses with Intelligent CIO in detail how telcos can protect their
networks and subscribers from potential security threats.

ith telcos possessing vast amounts of
Personal Identifiable Information (PII)
and as the telco networks are the spine
of national communications, they are an increasingly
attractive target for cybercriminals. In fact, the most
attractive assets a telco possesses include user devices,
network elements and high-value data. The traditional
threat mitigation approach is largely based on manual
processes with a fragmented security management
system. What is needed is an expanded telco
specific security management solution with security
orchestration, analytics and response (SOAR) which
would support workflow management, automation
and reporting. This would enable security operations
teams to move towards automation, help with
prioritisation and better business decision making.
