Nokia Networks has expanded its partnership with Check Point Software Technologies to provide real-time protection for operators.

The move is aimed at helping operators address the increasing security challenges arising from the growing avalanche of malicious mobile network attacks.

Check Point has become the first vendor to provide its firewall for certification and integration with the Nokia Networks telco cloud security suite. Integration with other firewalls will also be made available in the near future.

The solution comprises the Nokia Cloud Security Director, third party firewalls and Nokia services for the cloud.

Nokia Cloud Security Director, launched at Mobile World Congress 2015, enables operators to automatically deploy security policies and functions in cloud and hybrid networks. The product is compliant with forthcoming ETSI NFV security standards.

Cloud perimeter firewalls and management systems from other vendors can be integrated with the Nokia Networks telco cloud security suite. This approach is part of the Nokia Networks partnering strategy for business growth, the company said.
