Telecom Cybersecurity Solutions | Core Signaling & 5G Infrastructure Defense
Signaling firewalls, 5G Core Security Edge Protection Proxy (SEPP), and telecom-specific threat detection engineered to defend mobile networks, subscriber privacy, and national critical infrastructure.
What is Telecom Cybersecurity Solutions in Telecom & Communications?
Telecom cybersecurity solutions protect carrier core infrastructure, 5G Service-Based Architecture (SBA), and legacy signaling links (SS7/Diameter). By deploying signaling firewalls, Security Edge Protection Proxies (SEPP), and automated DDoS mitigation on Gi-LAN interfaces, it prevents subscriber tracking and network infiltration.

Covert Subscriber Tracking via SS7/Diameter Vulnerabilities
Adversaries exploit legacy international roaming links to send spoofed location requests, tracking VIP and citizen movements in real time.
Volumetric DDoS Attacks Crippling Mobile Data Gateways
Botnets flood mobile network Gi/SGi interfaces with hundreds of gigabits of malicious traffic, taking down mobile internet for entire cities.
IMSI Catchers and Stingrays Eavesdropping on Cells
Rogue cellular base stations force consumer smartphones to downgrade to unencrypted 2G connections to harvest IMSIs and intercept calls.
Inter-Carrier 5G Roaming Vulnerabilities
Unencrypted HTTP/2 signaling between roaming partner networks exposes sensitive subscriber authentication vectors to intermediate transit networks.
End-to-End Carrier Delivery & Rollout Workflow
A disciplined four-stage engineering lifecycle ensuring zero subscriber downtime and seamless core network integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Direct technical answers regarding TM Forum Open APIs, 5G standalone cores, diameter/HTTP2 mediation, and billing scalability.
What is a 5G Security Edge Protection Proxy (SEPP) and why is it mandatory?
The SEPP acts as the secure gateway between roaming 5G networks, enforcing application-layer encryption and mutual authentication on inter-carrier N32 interfaces. It prevents intermediate transit providers from eavesdropping on roaming subscriber credentials.
How does an SS7 signaling firewall prevent subscriber location tracking?
The firewall analyzes incoming SS7 MAP queries from foreign carriers. If a request attempts to locate a subscriber (such as SendRoutingInfoForSM) without a valid incoming call or SMS context, the firewall drops the packet and logs an alert.
How does 5G eliminate IMSI catchers (Stingrays)?
In 5G networks, the true subscriber identity (SUPI) is never transmitted over the radio air interface in plaintext. It is encrypted using the home network public key into a Subscription Concealed Identifier (SUCI), neutralizing IMSI catchers.
How does the platform mitigate multi-terabit volumetric DDoS attacks on mobile gateways?
The system uses BGP Flowspec and automated scrubbing centers that inspect traffic entering Gi/SGi interfaces. Attack packets are filtered at line-rate using hardware silicon, allowing legitimate customer mobile traffic to pass without latency.
Does the software satisfy federal critical telecommunications infrastructure directives?
Yes. The platform meets all mandatory security controls specified in 3GPP TS 33.501, GSMA FASG recommendations, and FCC CSRIC requirements for critical national telecommunications infrastructure defense.
