Telecom Data & AI: A DSPM Playbook for Secure Innovation

There are a number of factors that can affect the telecom industry, making it more prone the cybersecurity incidents. For instance, the shift from a traditional environment to cloud-native and hybrid clouds. Similarly, data sprawl and shadow IT have always been a bane of cybersecurity in almost every industry. With the introduction of AI, the attack surface has expanded significantly.

Data security posture management, also called DSPM, is a data-centric approach to cybersecurity. The tool gives increased visibility into sensitive data, correlates data, risks, business impact, and regulatory compliance, and automates controls around data and AI security, governance, and compliance.

DSPM discovers, classifies, and catalogs data across on-prem, hybrid cloud, and SaaS environments. The knowledge graph provides complete context around data, risks, entitlements, and regulatory context, enabling telecom service providers to establish appropriate security controls to protect data.

A robust DSPM solution, as Securiti’s DSPM, integrates with an AI Security capability, providing complete visibility into AI models and agents across the environment, the data used or generated by the AI, and mitigating risks with enhanced LLM firewalls and AI security controls.

DSPM can help protect personally identifiable information (PII), financial data, such as payment information, and other operational or analytical data.
