AdaptiveMobile Signalling Protection chosen by Tier-1 Asia Pacific MNO to Defend against Sophisticated SS7 Network Abuse
AdaptiveMobile (News - Alert), the world leader in mobile network security, today
announced that it has been selected by a tier-1 mobile network operator
(MNO) in APAC to defend against the growing number and complexity of SS7
security threats in the region. As the number of attacks continues to
increase, there has been an increased urgency from MNOs to secure their
networks to retain subscriber trust and security.
AdaptiveMobile was selected thanks to its market-leading SS7 Signalling
Protection product and the ability of the Company to deliver
state-of-the-art signalling and messaging protection capabilities from a
single, award-winning network security platform. AdaptiveMobile's Signalling
Protection product superiority is underpinned by the world-leading
research capabilities of AdaptiveMobile's Threat Intelligence Unit,
providing customers with the latest insight and intelligence on the
threats posed to their networks.
Recent research from AdaptiveMobile's TIU has concluded that SS7 attacks
are being launched continuously and sustainably in APAC, particularly
from China and North Korea, which is a major concern to MNOs in the
region. These attacks are sophisticated in nature and are often hidden
in different proxies; however, the attacks typically connect back to
these two countries of origin in some capacity. The TIU's ability to
share these unique industry insights and findings hlps to strengthen
AdaptiveMobile's value proposition in the market.
"Mobile network operators are rapidly realizing the importance of
deploying proven, scalable and advanced security measures to secure
their SS7 Networks. We are pleased to be working with an increasing
number of operators in the APAC region as they witness the number of SS7
attacks increase and believe this will be a key geography for strategic
growth over the next few years," said Brian Collins, chief executive
officer, AdaptiveMobile. "The current mobile security landscape plays to
our strengths as we deliver a world-class SS7 security solution to meet
the region's need. In fact, our Signalling Protection product, which
encompasses SS7 and Diameter security, has been shortlisted in the Global
Telecom Awards for Security Solution of the Year."
AdaptiveMobile is now strongly positioned to build on this success and
further strengthen its position across the entire APAC region through
its highly effective channel partner initiative. Already delivering
results, this approach allows AdaptiveMobile to expand more rapidly
across the region, reducing sales cycles and ensuring that its market
leading signalling and messaging security systems can be implemented at
the accelerating pace being demanded by operators to safeguard their
subscribers.
