Penetration testing over a telecom network is performed to check the organization’s proficiency and perseverance in securing their network systems against both external and internal threats and risks which are already existing and against those who have high possibility or probability to emerge in the near future.
It helps the organization to identify both internal and external threats and risks which may occur due to human-instigated vulnerabilities, which needs to be addressed by the organization as soon as possible.
It helps in identifying weakness regarding security of certain organizations.
It helps the organization to understand the impact of emerging risks and threats and performing penetration testing helps to fix them timely.
A SS7 penetration test or we can say SS7 security audit, is very similar in nature as a PCI compliance test. The PCI compliance test is an IP based pen test used to perform on e-commerce website applications of USA to achieve PCI compliance as it is required by all credit card companies.
This test is quite fast and non-expensive.It can be performed without any physical device being installed in the network. In this type of penetration testing service, several SS7 messages from different sources have to be tested across multiple SCCP providers just to make sure each one of they have a cloud-based firewall solution. Information regarding the source should not be disclosed in order to maintain the in-dependency of the test.
After the test is done a complete and comprehensive report of detected risks, threats and vulnerabilities that have been found over the entire telecom network should be eliminated as soon as possible following some guidelines and it should be verified again later with re-scanning the entire process to check whether the vulnerabilities have been eliminated or not.
A Diameter penetration test or we can say Diameter security audit, is very similar in nature as a PCI compliance test. The PCI compliance test is an IP based pen test used to perform on e-commerce website applications of USA to achieve PCI compliance as it is required by all credit card companies.
This test is quite fast and non-expensive. It can be performed without any physical device being installed in the network. In this type of penetration testing service several Diameter messages from different sources have to be tested across multiple SCCP providers just to make sure each one of they have a cloud-based firewall solution. Information regarding the source should not be disclosed in order to maintain the in-dependency of the test.
After the test is done a complete and comprehensive report of detected risks, threats and vulnerabilities that have been found over the entire telecom network should be eliminated as soon as possible following some guidelines and it should be verified again later with re-scanning the entire process to check whether the vulnerabilities have been eliminated or not.
SS7 cloud scanner service is a web-based penetration testing tool that allows a trained telecom operator to generate ad-hoc SS7 signaling messages for a mobile network in order to test SS7 based threats, risks, and vulnerabilities.
SS7 messages has been generated by the SS7 cloud scanner which reach to the telecom operator from the external interfaces of SCCP carriers and it should accurately test any defenses present on that network including SS7 firewalls.
Unlike SS7, Diameter and GTP penetration tests, the attacks on the IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) based VOLTE (Voice over LTE network) are not done from external interfaces of SCCP carriers.
While performing this pen test a huge number of possible attacks and parameters may cause at least some types of vulnerabilities on most telecom networks even after they have passed their previous security examination or audits.
This test is quite similar to both SS7 and Diameter penetration test, which we have already discussed.
While performing this pen test a huge number of possible GTP signaling messages, parameters, or targeted nodes may cause at least some types of vulnerabilities on most telecom networks even after they have passed their previous security examination or audits.
