AT&T, Singtel and Telefonica are collaborating to enhance their ability to detect and eliminate cybersecurity threats.  Members of  the Telco Security Alliance, the companies are working together, sharing the latest threat intelligence and indicators of compromise. Information comes from a variety of sources, including anonymous data from alliance members’ security operations centers and security team investigations.

“Joint threat intelligence sharing will allow our security analysts to take more proactive means to combat malicious activities,” said the Telco Security Alliance said in a press release. “We will accomplish this by writing and pushing signatures for newly discovered malware and phishing campaigns across customer products and environments down to individual endpoints.”

“This relationship supports the global fight against cybercrime,” said Jaime Blasco, assistant vice president of product development for AT&T Cybersecurity. “This initiative already proved valuable to AT&T’s visibility into current threats, and as we continue to work together, our focus is on utilizing this relationship to deliver better threat intelligence to our customers.”
