Securing Telecommunication Providers

Cyberattacks Targeting Telecommunication

Telecommunication operators and service providers are core to national infrastructure. They run mobile and fixed networks, internet backbones, data centers, and cloud based services that millions of users rely on every day. This makes them a prime target for attackers who want to intercept communications, disrupt connectivity, steal subscriber data, or abuse weaknesses in signaling and SIM or eSIM management. Recent European and global reports highlight growing risks such as DDoS campaigns, signaling attacks, SIM swapping and supply chain compromises against telecom networks and digital infrastructure, which can cause major outages and data exposure if not properly controlled.
