  • Four Reasons Why Telecoms Providers Must Improve Cybersecurity Measures

    From Bill Horne@21:1/5 to All on Fri Sep 23 15:04:54 2022
    by Edwin Bentley

    The telecoms industry is not immune to cyber security breaches. It is
    more susceptible than ever. A dependence on telecommunications
    products and services due to remote working during the pandemic, and
    more has produced an increasingly connected world that significantly
    relies on these telco service providers. And where there is
    dependence, there are threats to disrupt it.

    In August 2021, a security breach hit T-Mobile and impacted more than
    40 million current, former, and prospective customers. A recently
    discovered cyber incident at a critical supplier to Vodafone also had
    "scope to impact the entire telecoms industry."

    In many big companies security problems aren't solved for months, see
    the recent things in the news about Twitter.
    They don't care until it breaks.
