The document discusses a leading telecommunications operator's deployment of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) to enhance their security posture against evolving threats like call interception and data breaches. Despite initial challenges with their existing security rules, the implementation of Securitygen IDS provided continuous network monitoring, significantly reducing high severity attack attempts and improving compliance and protection against advanced attacks. The case study highlights the importance of automation and analytics in sustaining a robust security framework for next-generation telecom operations.

- 1. The Customer A leading integrated operator offering a wide range of telecommunications and digital services focused on the best customer experience. The Business Scenario and Challenge This MNO deployed an IPS with filter and blocking rules on border elements and traditional rules. However, even after a year of deployment, not all the IPS rules were efficient enough. How to boost the existing security plan - With the evolving threat landscape, continuous network monitoring through a signalling IDS was critical to ensure protection against the call, message interception, and subscriber data breaches. As a leader and a firm believer in secure and resilient telco transformations, the MNO team was keen on establishing security as an enabler to support and ensure their business transition. The critical elements of their 5G security framework: The Solution Given the digital environment's rapidly changing ecosystem, the MNO chose SecurityGen IDS (Intrusion Detection System) to monitor the perimeter constantly and thus help improve and align security posture at this fast pace. IDS deployment helped the MNO strengthen their security posture with comprehensive security monitoring, anomalous activity detection, and reporting across the signalling network perimeter. SecurityGen IDS deployment enabled the SOC team: SecurityGen is a global company focused on cybersecurity for telecom security. We deliver a solid security foundation to drive secure telco digital transformations and ensure next-gen enterprise intelligent connectivity.

SecurityGen’s IDS deployment helps a leading MNO significantly enhance the security posture Case Study Security readiness for 5G Steady improvement in the security posture of critical assets, the interval between security assessments to be secured by monitoring Adoption of automation and analytics, integration to SOC Development of security framework and benchmarking Adherence to increased compliance Continual monitoring, a repository of compliance reports from any given period, evidence of actions and security level, and protection against advanced attacks. Monitor threats, prioritize actions and immediately verify results and impacts. Using actionable data collected from the IDS, the SOC team can correct STP/DEA configuration or update Firewall rules to address and thwart threats emerging from new techniques or changes on the signalling service chain.
