Telecommunications infrastructure underpins much of the world’s economy and critical services, but the industry is vulnerable to physical threats, from sabotage to theft and accidental damage.
Security and estates managers have a challenging task to secure disparate sites and assets and remain accountable. Consideration must be given to compliance with regulatory standards, digitalisation and how it can improve operational efficiency, best ways to manage shared infrastructure, protection of physical resilience, and integration to unlock enhanced management potential.
With this in mind, Abloy UK is asking managers of telecoms estates – Are you compliant to the latest telecoms security standards and What level of control do you have when it comes to who can access your assets?
Abloy’s extensive experience of the UK’s Critical infrastructure means we can advise customers based in the regulatory understanding of the telecoms sector and therefore help educate the industry and raise security standards. To aid this, Abloy has produced a whitepaper that explores the legislation around physical security that network and service providers must adhere to, and explores the challenges faced by the industry when it comes to controlling access to buildings and assets.
The whitepaper also discusses how electromechanical access control (EAC) systems are emerging as a solution to enhance physical security for telecommunications providers, offering flexibility, improved monitoring, and resilience against evolving threats.
The whitepaper uncovers answers to the following questions:
- “How can physical security digitalisation and integration boost operational efficiency?”
- “How can we use share infrastructure smartly?”
- “How much does non-compliance cost?”
- “Is your physical security system resilient and in line with OfCOM and NPSA recommendations
