“You see it in the news every day,” says Travis Volk, Vice President of Global Service Providers, Radware. In recent years, cyber-attacks have soared against the telecom industry. Outages, intrusions, and malicious attacks from independent and state-sanctioned actors have highlighted how vulnerable the telecom infrastructure can be. Because the telecom industry controls much of the nation’s critical infrastructure, a successful attack can have a significant and extensive impact. With the scale, complexity, and frequency of attacks on the rise, carriers will need to raise their game in response. During this podcast, Volk discusses the current risks and potential future threats in the telecom industry and explain what carriers can do to safeguard their critical infrastructure. “The main misconception, that most operators have for themselves, is that conventional tools give them the visibility and control over these modern events.” We learn that this mismatch of traditional tools and today’s attacks, leaves operators very vulnerable to attacks with real economic damage, both in terms of actual disruption, and with lost customers, brand damage and so on. Volk walks us through the scale of the issue and then makes the case for an updated, multifaceted approach to fighting and winning this daily battle.
