Telecoms Cyber Security MasterClass
The Cyber Security for Telecoms program is our newest and most popular program. This course provide telecoms professionals with the opportunity to learn about the latest risks and containment approaches focused specifically on the fraud and security risks unique to the telecoms industry.
While there are dozens of programs which aim to help I/T and Security teams deal with the cyber attacks aimed at accounting, operational and office systems, none of these teachers or programs understand or appreciate the very real and very severe risks that these attacks represent to the telecom.
This program is designed to provide internal audit, revenue assurance, security, fraud, I/T and other risk management professionals with an exhaustive review of the many different cyber attack vectors emerging daily, and examines them against the risk telecoms face as;
* The providers of internet services to consumers, businesses, government and the military
* The owners of massive voice networks exposed to hundreds of new fraud and hacking risks due to the compromising of the global SS7 signaling network
* The owners of the worlds largest and most vulnerable data networks.

Telecoms Cyber Security - A lot more than just Firewalls & VPNs
Cyber security is the biggest and most critical telecoms risk vector in the world today. No telecom is safe from cyber attack and no amount of "normal" cyber protections will cover all of the many different dimensions of the cyber security puzzle that telecoms must deal with. The telecom must both protect its own internal systems and databases, while at the same time figuring out how to protect partners, customers and its own national cyber frontier, all while continuing to innovate and pioneer bigger, faster and even riskier products and service.s

The Cyber Security Imperative
Unfortunately, the highly segmented and hyper-silo specialization of the typical telco operations, leaves far too many gaps for the cyber attacker to penetrate.
The hacking of the telecom has been a risk unique to telecoms since the first networks were created, and the innovation and work required to safeguard existing and future systems is a critical mission.
This course is s MUST HAVE for anyone working in telecoms governance or security and interested in understanding the complex interplay of operations, security and cyber risk.
