With
customer demand for converged services increasing each day, IP networks
are emerging as the preferred platform. However, traditional IT
security solutions are insufficient to address the challenges that come
with an all IP network, and this posed a significant challenge for
operators.
Nokia Siemens Networks worked closely with Jiangsu
Mobile to understand and analyze its network security challenges and
delivered a tailor-made solution which combines project management,
network structure design, system integration and operation &
maintenance to address the unique security challenges of communications
networks.
In addition, Nokia Siemens Networks also provided
Jiangsu Mobile with a security evaluation tool based on international
standards, which will help the operator measure the effectiveness of
its security system, and evaluate the return on its security investment.
With
improved network security, end users will have access to higher-quality
unbroken service with reduced risk of hacker attacks. Jiangsu Mobile
will also benefit from increased network uptime, and reduced OPEX.
Commenting
on the win Steven Shaw, head of Service for Nokia Siemens Networks
Greater China region said, “Our strong legacy in the telecom industry,
our understanding of consumer access trends and our innovative services
model helped us go beyond IT and IP layer security, to address security
challenges across the communication network – thus enabling higher
security, and better service.”
“This is an important security
solution win with China Mobile for Nokia Siemens Networks, and we are
confident of similar successes in the future,” he added.
