Security imperatives for digital transformation
Telcos should be proud of their rich heritage of protecting the availability of network infrastructure and the confidentiality of customers’ data in transit – their track record is pretty good. But the market is changing, and CSPs are exposed to increasing business risk arising from data breaches and other attacks, while attack vectors are becoming increasingly sophisticated. CSPs need to undertake an end-to-end cybersecurity risk assessment around this changing landscape in security threats and opportunities. Operators should focus more than they have in the past on protecting the integrity of the network, packets in the network, the confidentiality of data, the risk that comes with digital transformation and determine the necessary steps to mitigate it. If security is well managed, it can be a positive differentiator for CSPs. Read this report to understand:
- How security requirements around people, processes and technology are changing
- Why end-to-end security is more important than ever, and why good data governance is key as CSPs develop multi-cloud environments
- Lessons learned from telco data breaches
- How to source software that can stand up to security threats
- Why CSPs must evolve from DevOps to DevSecOps
- Why it’s critical for CSPs to secure application program interfaces
- The role for artificial intelligence in cybersecurity
- What CSPs at the leading edge of innovation in cybersecurity have learned so far
