For telecom companies, robust cybersecurity isn’t just essential—it’s the bedrock of connectivity. Tracking key metrics provides a clear view of your security health, helping you protect vital infrastructure and customer trust.
Key Cybersecurity Metrics for Telecom Companies:
- Incident Detection:
- Metric: Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) security incidents.
- Faster detection minimizes the impact of breaches.
- Incident Response:
- Metric: Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) to security incidents.
- Swift response limits the scope and duration of attacks.
- Vulnerability Management:
- Metric: Average time to remediate identified vulnerabilities.
- Timely patching prevents exploitation.
- Data Protection:
- Metric: Number of customer records compromised annually.
- Protecting customer data is paramount for trust and compliance.
- Threat Prevention:
- Metric: Number of blocked malicious attempts .
- Effective prevention is a critical first line of defense.
- Security Awareness:
- Metric: Percentage of employees completing security training.
- Human error is a major vulnerability.
- Regulatory Compliance:
- Metric: Percentage of security controls aligned with standards (e.g., ISO27001,NIST, ETSI).
- Meeting industry regulations is essential.
Dashboards:
- Visualise key metrics for real-time insights, such as a dashboard displaying the “Trends in Detected Security Incidents.”
