Abstract

The cyber threat landscape is evolving rapidly in a multitude of industries. The telecom industry has not been an exception. The industry is becoming an attractive prospect for those with malicious intent because it has access to a lot of personal data. Nowadays, ISPs and telecom providers are facing an unprecedented level of cyber attacks and threats with the potential to undermine the pillars of their critical infrastructures. During the past few years, we have seen several high-profile breaches involving the theft of data from numerous telecom companies. Victims of recent cyber attacks include well-known telecom groups such as Talk Talk and France’s Orange. With cyber crimes being considered a high-level threat globally, telecom providers are forced to adopt advanced security solutions to withstand reputation-draining security data breaches. Although these organizations spend money to implement security controls in order to mitigate the risk associated with cyber attacks and data breaches, there is an undisputed challenge to be tackled that is “how much cybersecurity do telecom companies really need?” This presentation will provide an overview of the technologies involved in managing cybersecurity risks shedding lights on the cybersecurity investment decisions that need to be taken by telecom providers to protect their systems and digital assets from cyber attackers.
