From lab to live security testing

Mobileum's dsTest is a leading platform for simplified, automated, flexible, fast, and precise lab testing of complex scenarios spanning multiple simultaneous interface applications. Combined with our Signaling Firewall or any third-party tool, it allows CSPs to create tests and independently validate their protection before the live deployment of changes by generating traffic, sending malformed packets, and emulating other known fraud scenarios.

Comprehensive Signaling Firewall validation

dsTest uses emulators and simulators to surround any firewall under test and replicate the security threats and scenarios networks face. By emulating SS7, Diameter, GTP-C, and HTTP/2 network traffic entering the firewall from the appropriate network nodes, our tool comprehensively authenticates the signaling firewall before changes and upgrades, thus ensuring it is free from vulnerabilities. Once changes are deployed, it validates every single rule change within minutes.

Protocol Fuzzing

With the advent of 5G technology, the complexity and connectivity of networks have increased significantly. Protocol fuzzing, a dynamic testing method, has become essential to detect vulnerabilities, prevent exploits, and ensure software network stability. With fully configurable parameters, dsTest enables users to tailor fuzzing operations to test vulnerabilities and performance across multiple network layers and protocols.

dsTest’s Protocol Fuzzing exposes hidden vulnerabilities in 5G protocols by simulating malicious or unexpected data inputs.
  • Supported Protocols: 5G, 4G, 3G
  • Configurable Fuzzing Parameters: Seed for introducing randomness, Start location for fuzzing (IP header, Transport header, or payload), Fuzz length (minimum, maximum, or randomized), and Percentage of data to fuzz.

Automated lab testing with fewer resources

To automate the validation scheduling, the TSAR (Test, Scheduling, Automation, and Reporting) component of dsTest simplifies and shortens the process of any CI/CD/CT pipeline integration by providing a mediation layer with fewer commands between pipeline tools and dsTest, even when multiple tests need to be scheduled. It facilitates the cost-effective testing of any signaling firewall by considerably reducing the time and complexity in the lab testing process, with accurate detection of anomalies and weaknesses, while requiring fewer resources to operate and driving repeatable validation

Maximum security with dsTest and Mobileum’s Firewall

Our multi-protocol firewall enables mobile operators to protect their services and subscribers by monitoring and controlling SS7, CAMEL, Diameter, MAP, GTP, SIP, and 5G HTTP/2 signaling streams. The key benefits:
  • Addresses all GSMA Category 1, 2, 3+ vulnerabilities 
  • SMS FW (detects and blocks A2P Gray Route, Phishing, Spam, and Smishing)
  • Integration of various AI/ML-based algorithms and anti-fraud modules
  • EPS fallback performance measurement for voice services from NR to LTE
  • Real-time detection and blocking of fraud attempts
  • Ensures customer privacy and security Protects against financial, reputational, and legal impacts
  • Protects against financial, reputational, and legal impacts

AI/ML-based control mechanisms for integrated protection

With advanced threat intelligence, Mobileum’s Signaling Firewall uses various machine learning algorithms and anti-fraud for real-time detection and blocking of fraud and security issues. The solution protects the operator based on its signaling data and crosses it with worldwide signaling information from Mobileum’s extensive footprint with recognized, accurate, and up-to-date data science capability for zero-day threat detection.

Our Signaling Firewall is based upon proven technology that provides complete protection across the full range of signaling threats identified by the GSMA and goes above and beyond these recommendations. It offers maximum protection with a multi-protocol and cross-protocol signaling firewall integrated with the SEPP or as a separate and standalone function.
