Kudelski Security has created an end-to-end secure 4G-LTE wireless broadband solution for critical communications. It provides a portable, private cellular network with LTE speeds and bandwidth along with full network control and priority access. The solution includes ruggedized mobile units that create independent secure network bubbles for local communications even without remote connectivity. It also offers built-in security features like encryption and threat monitoring and can integrate with Kudelski's Cyber Fusion Center for analytics.

END-TO-END SECURE 4G-LTE
WIRELESS BROADBAND SOLUTION
THE CHALLENGE OF SECURE BROADBAND FOR CRITICAL COMMUNICATION
LTE is the future of mobile broadband technology. It provides the high-speed data capabilities needed for mission-critical
communications in all key sectors - from public safety, defense, and emergency services to transport, energy and water.
Several challenges, however, have emerged with the transition to 4G-LTE.
Firstly, end users are dependent on a service provided by commercial mobile network operators, over which they have no control.
They cannot have guaranteed consistent or priority access to the network, which is key to maintaining communication in critical
situations and facilitating an effective, coordinated operational response.
A second challenge relates to security. LTE brings new challenges in terms of cybersecurity, and organizations need to ensure that
the information they are transmitting cannot be intercepted by anyone trying to access sensitive information or disrupt operations.
In some countries, governments have answered these challenges by creating legislation that requires public safety and critical
infrastructure entities to own and operate private mobile networks.
The additional challenge of cost control faces any organization deploying a dedicated mobile network. Networks may not need to
be huge, but they do need to be scalable according to the number of end users. They also need to be compact and mobile, with
installations distributed wherever operations are taking place. Finding a cost-effective solution is a formidable challenge.
SOLUTION OVERVIEW – SECURE BY DESIGN
MOBILE CELLULAR COMMUNICATION
Kudelski Security has created a cost-effective, secure-by-
design, portable and private cellular network that combines the
increased speeds, improved latency and greater bandwidth of
4G-LTE with the benefit of full independence from commercial
mobile network operators.
• Secure, self-contained mobile network infrastructure
in which personnel can communicate, and over which you
maintain full control and visibility
• Ruggedized mobile units create secure, independent
network bubbles (no single-point-of failure) that
enable offices and units in different areas of operation to
communicate with, or independently of, the secured IP
central infrastructure
• Mobile units can cover areas of many kilometers.
Communications within those areas remain local,
guaranteeing network operation even if remote
connectivity (e.g. satcom link) becomes unavailable
• Extra security possible by incorporating customized
algorithms into the hardware or software encryption
• Built-in sensors and management console to monitor
and analyze local and advanced threats in real time.
Units can also connect to Kudelski Security’s Cyber
Fusion Center for long-term, secure storage and big data
analytics and intelligence
KEY FEATURES
Secure 4G-LTE, which can complement the Cyber Fusion
Center has the following key features:
1. Complete and compact secure mobile network based on
latest 3GPP standards, supporting UMTS, HSPA, LTE
WiFi technologies and running on COTS hardware.
2. End-to-end voice encryption for mobile and desktop
devices, based on hardware and software cryptography,
for secure communication.
3. Resilient, secure, scalable and built on cost-effective
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and service-oriented
architecture, allowing for better use of resources, and
distribution of network functions that ensures local users
are served ‘locally’ and network load is reduced.
4. Local application servers offering best-in-class user
experience and high security (secure voice over
LTE, secure push-to-talk, one-to-many secure video
distribution, secure messaging).
5. Data access management based on built-in, SIM-based
authentication.
6. Real-time monitoring and advanced threat intelligence
possible through the optional Cyber Fusion Center
solution, enabling tracking and reporting of user activity
both inside and outside the communication network.
7. IT-friendly management and easy system operability
through web-based interfaces and API.
