Symantec at Mobile World Congress 2013 in Barcelona

Symantec’s theme at the upcoming MWC 2013 in Barcelona is ‘Mobility without vulnerability’.

For Communication Service Providers we will discuss:

• Information Protection as a Service (Cloud and Mobile Services)
• LTE Infrastructure Protection
• M2M Security Services
• Next Generation Network Protection
• Embedded Security and Availability (interesting topic for NEPs and NSVs)

Nigeria one week; Las Vegas the next. Two very contrasting trips spent talking to Service Providers, Communications Service Providers, and Telcos—but equally incisive in helping to understand what makes them tick. In fact, looking back over the 20 years I’ve been in the communications and technology business, I’ve met hundreds of CXOs from this industry and it’s given me privileged insight into what their pain is, what their problems are, and what keeps them up at night.

Let’s see if I’m right.

It’s clear that all three—Service Providers, Communications Service Providers, and Telcos (I’ll refer to Service Providers for brevity)—are driven to grow revenues. That’s a given, as is the demand to maximise customer ‘stickiness’. But they also know their brand reputation is at stake: one outage, one leak of confidential data, and they could be tomorrow’s Enron....

The Telco analyst firm Ovum has identified 6 super themes for Telcos as very critical for their future success: Optimizing the customer experience, adapting to Cloud business models, profiting from new revenue opportunities, exploiting next generation fixed and mobile access, managing the explosion of connected devices and moving along the road to 2020. In various breakout sessions at VISION EMEA we will explain how Symantec contributes to the success of Telcos today and in the future.

Webcast Overview:
As mobile operators increasingly accept the need for IPsec to encrypt LTE traffic across the S1 and X2 interfaces, it makes increasing sense to leverage IP protocols to provide a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for eNode B authentication. While mobile operators can build their own PKI infrastructure, many are already busy rolling out their LTE networks and have invested heavily in those build outs. 

This webinar will point to a potentially lower cost model for authentication of eNode Bs in the LTE network. With this model, mobile operators can offload this small portion of their control...
