In the telecommunications sector, operational efficiency and cybersecurity are essential pillars to ensure service quality and customer satisfaction. Telecom operators face increasing challenges in a competitive market, where interoperability issues and security threats can jeopardize operational continuity. But how can these barriers be overcome?
Interoperability: An Urgent Need
Integrating legacy networks with modern solutions is one of the biggest challenges for operators. Heterogeneous networks often fail to communicate efficiently, leading to:
- Protocol conflicts: Legacy and IP-based systems frequently face incompatibilities, hindering communication.
- Delays in expansion: New services or devices do not integrate quickly, slowing down market responsiveness.
- Operational complexity: Managing different technologies increases both time and costs.
Voice Network Security: The Frontline Against Threats
Operators also face constant risks from cyberattacks and fraud, compromising network integrity. The most common issues include:
- Call fraud: Unauthorized use of resources, leading to unnecessary costs.
- Denial-of-service (DoS) attacks: Network overload, causing service disruptions.
- Interceptions: Leakage of sensitive and confidential data.
