Attacks targeting these systems can cause <strong>major breakdowns in<\/strong> telecommunications services, resulting in <strong>significant financial losses<\/strong> and disrupting essential public services such as emergency calls, commercial transactions, remote medical consultations and public transport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project, led by Concordia University in partnership with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ericsson.com\/en\/about-us\/history\/places\/north-america\/canada\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ericsson<\/a><\/strong> proposes a security framework covering :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Identifying<\/strong>, <strong>modeling<\/strong>, <strong>quantifying<\/strong> and <strong>strengthening<\/strong> vulnerabilities and threats;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attack <strong>prevention<\/strong>, <strong>verification<\/strong>, <strong>detection<\/strong>,<strong>investigation<\/strong> and <strong>mitigation<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The expected results will <strong>enhance the security of future telecommunications products<\/strong>, while <strong>improving the protection of existing services<\/strong>.
