Case Study: a North American Tier-1 carrier strengthens SBC security with Spirent SecurityLabs penetration testing

North American Tier-1 carrier - Customer Case Study

A North American Tier-1 carrier engaged Spirent Communications to conduct a penetration test and host security review of their session border controller (SBC). The carrier needed to evaluate the security posture of this critical asset prior to a high-profile proof of concept with a government agency.

Spirent's SecurityLabs team performed the assessment, identifying numerous critical vulnerabilities including unauthenticated remote code execution and authentication bypass. The Spirent team immediately notified the carrier, provided detailed remediation strategies, and delivered comprehensive reports. These actions equipped the customer with the critical information needed to mitigate the significant risks to their network and assets before the proof of concept.
