Network Service Providers continuously invest in new technologies to support new service paradigms
and emerging communication trends. These crucial new technologies increase
operational complexity and may introduce unforeseen attack vectors. Rigorous and systematic security evaluations of these
technologies are crucial for safeguarding your organization's reputation, assets, and customer data.
Palindrome Technologies has keen expertise in evaluating and protecting carrier-grade networks built on legacy and emerging technologies, including 4G/5G, CBRS, MEC/Cloud, M2M, and V2X. We actively work with standards bodies and industry consortiums, such as GSMA, IEEE, CTIA, and the Linux Foundation, to ensure security is never an afterthought, and we have a proven track record of successfully protecting some of the world's largest networks. Our Bellcore roots give us the insight to deeply understand the unique security challenges network operators and service providers face.
Securing our nation's critical infrastructure hinges on resilient communications, unwavering security, and reliability across every link, from hand-held devices to the network's core. Our team of experts employs a philosophy to evaluate, identify, and mitigate potential vulnerabilities across your attack surface.
We are proficient at identifying vulnerabilities enabled through partnerships and third-party providers. This deep expertise helps improve your security posture by uncovering weaknesses typically overlooked due to limited understanding of complex communication network intricacies and the use of COTS analysis tools.
In the first two months of 2023, data from over 74 million US telecommunications clients leaked, and most breaches can be attributed to third-party vendors. Source
In 2022, most 5G network operators experienced up to six cyber incidents. Defenses are especially lacking for ransomware and phishing attacks. Source
Networks are continuously evolving, merging legacy capabilities with emerging technologies such as 5G/6G, MEC, and OpenRAN, introducing attack opportunities by powerful adversaries.
We specialize in carrier-grade network security and understand how to navigate these security challenges.
