Security Challenges & Solutions in Deploying Cellular Networks for Utilities

The utilities infrastructure as a whole is seeing radical changes. Part of those changes is the shift to digitalization and the integration of telecommunications-based systems. This shift in particular will pose its own set of challenges for utilities including changes to network architecture, network security, and cellular network integration. The biggest challenge of all is maintaining network security as utilities advance their connectivity to integrate cellular networks and branch out on their IoT use and expand their supply chain. The increasing adoption of wireless network systems in utilities, the increased shift to remote work, and the now bidirectional flow of information between utilities and consumers have expanded the threat landscape of cybersecurity attacks against utilities.

In this webinar recording you will hear Ericsson discuss where utilities stand in terms of their adoption of cellular network technologies, their awareness of their systems vulnerabilities, and their interests in fortifying their network security.

You will hear about:  Security infrastructure challenges that utilities face in regard to integrating cellular networks into existing IT/OT security systems; How utilities are approaching Zero Trust Architecture; and About the factors that utilities care about most when considering network security solutions

Speakers: – Steve Lowe, Ericsson – Ken Kaminski, Ericsson
