Security and engineering for telecommunications operators.

Operators run high-volume, always-on systems that hold subscriber data. We help secure, integrate and support them.

Why it matters

Telecommunications systems are exposed by design: they face the internet, carry personal data and cannot go offline for long. Security has to be tested, not assumed.

  • Testing exposed infrastructure

    Penetration testing of internet-facing services and the paths behind them.

  • Subscriber data protection

    NDPA compliance support from an NDPC-licensed DPCO.

  • Integration and support

    Integrations between billing, customer and operational systems.

Challenges

Common challenges

  1. A large attack surface.

    Many internet-facing services, built over many years.

    How we respond: Scoped penetration testing that prioritises what an attacker would target.

  2. Subscriber data under the NDPA.

    Large volumes of personal data across many systems.

    How we respond: Compliance assessment and implementation support from a licensed DPCO.

  3. Systems that must not stop.

    Changes have to be made without service interruption.

    How we respond: Testing and planned releases that protect availability.

Approach

How we work with operators

Changes to live networks are scoped and scheduled to protect service.

  1. Step 1: Agree the scope

    Systems, windows and escalation contacts.

  2. Step 2: Test

    Within agreed windows, with critical findings escalated at once.

  3. Step 3: Remediate

    Fixes prioritised by exposure and impact.

  4. Step 4: Retest

    Verified before closure.
