Telecom Security

Telecom Security Assessment

Telecom security is often misunderstood and ignored, yet a telecom breach can have far larger consequences than one in core IT. We work with operators to assess the risk in their core network that could lead to loss of customer information, loss of service availability, and sometimes threats to national security.

Our telecom security services

We offer a range of telecom security services across the mobile core, from legacy signalling to LTE and IMS:

  • Penetration testing of SS7 and SIGTRAN, and security analysis of SS7 interconnect
  • Telecom component configuration review and network element vulnerability analysis
  • 3G protocol and configuration security audit
  • Telecom product analysis and SS7 external information gathering
  • SMS / MMS fraud audit and SIM & AuC leakage audit
  • Management & OAM attacks, and VAS and IN services analysis

Element-level depth, network-level view

We check the configuration security of specific network elements, inspecting individual instances of an HSS, Diameter Agent, MME, MSC or STP. Then we give you a holistic view of your telecom network across security, performance, availability, integrity and confidentiality.
