■ Protected communications and networks
Telecommunications and ISP
📌 Situation
Network security at the heart of digital transformation.
Telecommunications and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are the backbone of global connectivity, ensuring the operation of 5G networks, fiber optics, data centers, and cloud services. However, with the growth of data traffic and the rise of digitalization, the sector has become a prime target for large-scale cyberattacks.
Cyberattacks on the telecommunications sector have been on the rise, with a notable increase in DDoS attacks, ransomware, and threats to 5G networks and telecom infrastructures.
📊 Increase in attacks on the telecommunications sector
Cyberattacks on the telecommunications industry are rapidly growing, with a significant increase in DDoS and threats related to 5G networks and IoT devices.
⚠️ DDoS and ransomware threaten service continuity
Large-scale DDoS attacks are targeting ISPs, mobile networks, and data centers, while ransomware is targeting telecom operators and cloud providers.
📡 5G and IoT in the hacker's crosshairs
5G networks and IoT offer new opportunities but also expose new vulnerabilities, with attacks specifically targeting the security of telecom infrastructures.
⚠️ Digital threats
Telecommunications and ISPs: a sector under constant attack.
Hackers are targeting network operators with increasingly advanced techniques, aiming to disrupt communications, steal sensitive data, and compromise critical infrastructure integrity.
🌐 Large-scale DDoS attacks against ISPs
DDoS attacks are targeting telecommunications networks, DNS servers, and cloud computing infrastructures, causing service blackouts and widespread interruptions.
🏴☠️ Digital espionage and 5G network attacks
Cybercriminal groups and state actors are increasingly targeting 5G networks and telecom infrastructures, with the goal of intercepting communications and manipulating network traffic.
📡 Compromising IoT networks and smart devices
With the increasing spread of IoT devices connected to mobile and Wi-Fi networks, hackers exploit vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access and compromise sensors, cameras, and industrial devices.
🔗 Supply chain attacks: infiltrations in tech suppliers
Many cyberattacks happen through compromised hardware and software suppliers, allowing criminals to infiltrate telecommunications systems.
🔐 Man-in-the-Middle: interception of browsing data
Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks allow hackers to intercept data traffic over public Wi-Fi, compromised VPNs, or vulnerabilities in ISP networks, stealing credentials and sensitive information.
📜 Regulations
Telecommunications and ISPs: new regulations for security.
Telecommunications are considered critical infrastructures and must comply with strict cybersecurity regulations to ensure data protection and service continuity.
🛡️ NIS2 – Critical infrastructure security
The new NIS2 Directive requires telecom operators and ISPs to strengthen network security and report any cyberattacks promptly.
🔏 GDPR – Data protection and user privacy
ISPs and telecommunications companies must ensure the protection of customer personal data and comply with GDPR, which includes encryption and protection of browsing and communication data, strong authentication for access to telecom systems, and notification of data breaches to the relevant authorities.
📡 EU Regulation for 5G Security
The European Union has introduced specific security measures to protect 5G networks, reducing the risk of attacks by state actors and cybercriminals.
💰 NRRP – Investments in telecommunications
The National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) supports digital innovation in the telecommunications sector.
🛡️ Security solutions
Enhance your networks and telecommunications systems.
Telecommunications companies and Internet service providers must adopt advanced cybersecurity solutions to protect networks, data centers, and cloud services. Here are some of our services:
⚔️ MDR – Monitoring and threat response
Our Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service ensures continuous monitoring of ISP networks and telecommunications, detecting and blocking cyberattacks in real-time.
👁️ NOC – Protection of ISP and 5G networks
Our Network Operations Center (NOC) protects telecommunications infrastructures, data centers, and cloud services from DDoS attacks, intrusions, and tampering.
📬 CSG – Security of communications and tracking data
Through the Communication Security Gateway (CSG), we securely manage email exchanges and messaging, filtering threats such as phishing, malware, and spam, protecting business communications from external attacks and intrusions.
🛠️ Security testing on network and cloud infrastructures
We conduct penetration tests and vulnerability assessments on ISP networks, 5G infrastructures, and cloud services, identifying and fixing vulnerabilities before they are exploited by hackers.
