Singtel pioneers one of the world’s first 5G Security-as-a-Slice (SecaaS)

Singtel, the telecommunications company, faced rising attacks on mobile devices that were becoming faster, more sophisticated, and increasingly aided by AI. To strengthen its 5G offerings, Singtel worked with Palo Alto Networks, using next-generation firewalls and 5G security expertise to develop Security-as-a-Slice (SecaaS).

With Palo Alto Networks, Singtel launched one of the world’s first 5G Security-as-a-Slice solutions, combining 5G network slicing with cloud-based, ML-powered cybersecurity to deliver customized, highly secure 5G services. The collaboration expanded Singtel’s security capabilities and enabled network-level assurance for stakeholders, though no specific financial or operational metric was provided.
