Securing your core network in the future I was recently at a similar network security event.

Based on experience gained elsewhere, Operators need to secure their core network as much as any devices in the packet switched world, as otherwise the whole network could bew compromised, creating unprecedented outages, causing tarnished reputations at board level. Please see this interesting blog regarding what Operators should consider:

Right for EE but maybe not for everyone What became apparent during the day at the conference was that while EE has a very specific network security strategy, which it managed to devise and implement quickly, other operators will have completely different approaches depending on their vendor partners, nature of backhaul, ability to invest in and deploy IP sec, and so on.

A lot to learn from the early movers!!
