Challenge

The Costs and Risks of Legacy Networking

As the cloud expands, and the number of connected devices increases, the telecommunications industry is an increasingly popular target for cybercriminals. The ING Group1 predicts the number of attacks, as well as attack impact, to continue trending upward as digital connectivity and 5G networks grow. The companies and regulatory agencies within the telecommunications sector — fixed-line and mobile internet and telephony providers — deliver services and infrastructure needed for transmitting data and signals. That critical infrastructure, and the large volume of sensitive information traveling through it, is invaluable to nation-state actors and other cybercriminals.

Some of the largest telecommunications companies in the world, including T-Mobile and Australia Telecom, suffered breaches in recent years, but even smaller telecom firms are at risk for credit card and customer data theft, website outages, and damaged brand reputation.

With telecommunications playing such a large role in both the public and private sector, mitigating cyberattacks and eliminating vulnerabilities will continue to be a challenge.
