Network security is vital to defend against 5G security challenges

Mobileum Inc., a leading global provider of telecom analytics and network solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been recognized for its 5G Security in the 2023 Gartner Emerging Technology Horizon for Communications report. The report notes Mobileum as a Sample Vendor for 5G security.

5G networks introduce a new architecture that heavily relies on IT and cloud technologies. Operators are becoming increasingly aware of the expanding “attack surface” surrounding their services, making it crucial to effectively manage new vulnerabilities and establish robust security standards for enhancing governance, risk, and compliance practices.

“To provide the high-speed and low-latency services demanded by real-time applications, edge computing, and the vast number of IoT devices, operators must adopt a modern network architecture. However, it is essential to remain cautious as adversaries are ready to exploit this new landscape for their own gain. As an award-winning provider in the telecom space, Mobileum’s 5G Security Portfolio helps operators safeguard their business with robust security protocols to mitigate potential risks,” stated Miguel Carames, Chief Product Officer at Mobileum.
