Telecommunications
Telecommunications firms have been targeted for over twenty years by
some of the world’s most motivated computer criminals. Recent incidents
have not only exposed certain telcos to much unwanted attention and
significant direct losses, but also attracted more hackers looking to make
a name for themselves.
Carriers and network operators are unveiling richer and more
complex customer services. In doing so, levels of exposure to malicious
attacks rise significantly. Customer data is increasingly at risk, and the
reputations of telecommunications companies with it.
This risk is compounded by the plethora of security vulnerabilities that come
to light daily and the fact that hackers have learned that Web applications
are often easier to exploit than network level security defences. Hackers
know the
same thing that the analyst community knows: Web applications rarely
stand up to standard application hacking tests. Pressure on carriers and
network operators to address this risk is further intensified by increasingly
stringent regulatory and legislative regimes.

founded on our many years of experience working with leading wireless
