Enea yesterday announced the tailoring of its suite of security solutions to address the unique security needs of governments and national security agencies for mobile network signaling intelligence. Enea’s network security suite offers cloud-native intelligence-led signaling security solutions to provide comprehensive, multi-generational mobile network protection across all generations of mobile networks from 2G to 5G.
Signaling intelligence allows for meaningful engagement and cooperation with network operators around specific attacks and attack types, from the targeting of VIPs such as political leaders and journalists to orchestrated Denial of Service (DoS) attacks that can affect critical government services. Signaling intelligence is also vital for shaping regulations and international agency collaborations to ensure protection against increasingly international and constantly evolving attack methods.
Enea Signaling Intelligence for National Security is the first industry solution to offer signaling intelligence directly to national security agencies to address their increasing need for visibility of the mobile threat landscape. It uses global data from multiple operator deployments - obfuscated and aggregated to protect user privacy - to process and filter large amounts of signaling data, identify cyber threats, and provide national security agencies with actionable intelligence.

Even some of the most advanced government agencies have limited capabilities in identifying, interpreting and acting on cyber threats embedded in mobile network signaling traffic In an age of markedly increased geopolitical tensions, it’s good to see a leader in mobile signaling security like Enea going beyond opportunistic engagements with government agencies to make these critical tools more usable and deliver them at scale.

Malicious mobile cyber-attacks threaten our collective security and pose specific, targeted threats to nations and individuals. Vulnerabilities in mobile network infrastructure can have serious repercussions; destabilizing economies, threatening critical infrastructure, and breaching privacy. Round-the-clock, global visibility of the latest threats is a tall order - that is what Enea provides and what national security agencies need.
