Communication Networks , Cybersecurity , Resiliency Knowledge Hub

For utilities adopting private LTE and 5G, ensuring the network is secure, resilient, and compliant is essential for maximizing use cases and meeting utilization goals.  To accomplish this, utilities need end-to-end security across the entire environment, from the cellular core and RAN to every connected device. However, fragmented visibility, diverse device types, and inconsistent enforcement models make it difficult to manage and secure this significant private cellular investment.

In this session, the panel of experts from OneLayer, Ericsson, and SouthernLinc will discuss key challenges and solutions that align to the following themes:

  • Unifying Infrastructure and Device Security: Why securing dynamic cellular environments is complicated, and why solving this now provides a stable platform for scalable growth. 
  • Achieving Unified Visibility: How a lack of visibility introduces greater security and compliance risk, and how the right tools enhance network and device observability, reducing risk while improving operations.
  • Enhancing Resiliency and Response: Why a lack of insight into device integrity and behavior limits threat detection and response, and how integrating device-level context into mobile network defense greatly enhances security operations.

Through this session, attendees will leave with guidance for building a secure, resilient private LTE & 5G environment.
