Here’s the reality. Your customers aren’t buying acronyms; they’re buying the calm certainty that Monday won’t start with a portal outage and a CEO on the warpath. In UK telecoms right now, evidence beats promises and that’s where you win.
So why now?
- Ransomware is testing carriers in public – After a recent UK teleco firm’s data breach made headlines and boardrooms nervous. The lesson isn’t panic; it’s pace; patch faster, configure tighter, and make sure even areas you think no one uses are covered by some security.
- Regulators want proof – Ofcom is forcing tougher anti-spoofing measures, and DSIT’s just opened a consultation to update the Telecoms Security Code of Practice. Expect more scrutiny of segmentation, firmware, and access control, plus audit trails.
- AI is shrinking the patch-to-exploit window – NCSC’s outlook to 2027 is blunt: attackers will scale up exploitation of known flaws. Basics, done brilliantly, beat silver bullets.
