Enea has signed an agreement to acquire AdaptiveMobile Security, a leading provider of security solutions for mobile networks in a deal worth €45m.
AdaptiveMobile Security delivers software and services for messaging and signaling security in mobile core networks. The company’s products protect mobile networks, their subscribers, and their data from all types of network-borne attacks. Messaging security prevents unwanted traffic which can be linked to security threats, service abuse, or revenue loss. The purpose of signaling security is to prevent cyberattacks exploiting signaling traffic. The offering is a combination of carrier-grade signaling firewalls, reporting, and advanced monitoring.
According to Enea, AdaptiveMobile Security’s products and services have been deployed by more than 80 mobile operators globally. The two main customer segments are mobile operators and providers of communication platforms. More than half of its revenue is recurring, and the solutions are sold as software licenses, managed services, or cloud services.
AdaptiveMobile Security will continue to operate under its current brand as a new business unit within Enea and will be headed by Brian Collins.
