As the backbone of Australia's digital economy, telcos and technology companies face uniquely complex attack surfaces across network infrastructure, cloud platforms, and software supply chains.
Talk to an ExpertUnderstanding the threat landscape is the first step to building resilience. Here's what's targeting your sector right now.
Telecommunications signalling protocol vulnerabilities enable real-time call/SMS interception, location tracking, and 2FA bypass at scale.
Route hijacking attacks against ISP and carrier infrastructure enable traffic interception and redirection affecting millions of customers.
Social engineering of telco staff to redirect mobile numbers, enabling account takeover of banking and high-value online services.
Misconfigured cloud environments, overpermissioned service accounts, and insecure APIs expose customer data and internal systems.
Tech companies' extensive use of open-source and third-party dependencies creates significant supply chain attack surface — SolarWinds-style attacks.
Public APIs exposed by telcos and tech platforms are targeted for data enumeration, credential stuffing, and account takeover at scale.

Deep assessment of network infrastructure, carrier-grade equipment, and interconnect points against telco-specific attack patterns.
Architecture review and penetration testing of AWS, Azure, and GCP environments — identifying misconfiguration, IAM weaknesses, and data exposure.
Comprehensive testing of public and internal APIs against authentication, authorisation, injection, and rate-limiting attack patterns.
A major Australian internet service provider engaged HackLabs to assess their cloud migration ahead of a customer portal relaunch. Testing identified an IDOR vulnerability in their customer management API that exposed billing data and PII for all 2.1M customers. The finding was remediated prior to launch, preventing a potential Category 5 notifiable data breach.
