Telecommunications

Telecom operators run always-on networks under heavy licensing obligations, carrying subscriber data and traffic that attract both attackers and regulators. Fidova was founded as a cybersecurity practice, and we bring that security-first discipline to how operators build, secure and govern their systems. We frame our work as capability applied to your estate, not as a claim of prior telecom contracts.

What's at stake

The pressures shaping this sector.

Legacy and cloud estates

Core OSS and BSS platforms, billing and provisioning systems sit alongside newer cloud and 5G workloads. Modernising without disrupting live services demands careful architecture and delivery oversight.

Attack surface at scale

Interconnected networks, APIs, customer portals and signalling interfaces create a large, constantly probed attack surface. Security testing has to keep pace with every release and integration.

Licence and lawful-intercept duties

Operators carry DoT licence conditions, TRAI obligations and lawful-intercept requirements that cannot be treated as an afterthought. Evidence of compliance must be continuous, not assembled at audit time.

Subscriber data protection

Call records, location data and KYC details are sensitive at volume. Handling them under the DPDP Act and, for international traffic, GDPR requires disciplined controls and clear ownership.

How Fidova helps

The disciplines that matter most here.

CybersecurityWe test applications, APIs and cloud workloads across your network estate, run penetration testing, and design a security programme that matches the scale and exposure of a carrier.Governance, Risk & ComplianceWe build a rationalised control set with named owners and continuous evidence, mapped across ISO 27001 and your licensing and data-protection obligations.DevelopmentWe bring architecture, delivery oversight and engineering quality to OSS, BSS and customer-facing platforms, with security considered up front rather than bolted on.Artificial IntelligenceWe help you select defensible AI use cases such as network optimisation and fraud detection, with data protection, security review and human oversight built in.ERPWe support ERP selection and implementation across finance, procurement and inventory so back-office operations keep pace with network growth.
