The 2026 Threatscape

The telecommunications industry is undergoing a profound digital transformation driven by the need to deploy edge computing, 5G networks, and IoT applications and the requirement to deliver ultra-low latency services and superior customer experiences. This evolution, however, expands the attack surface for service providers and introduces new security challenges. Traditional security approaches often fall short when protecting dynamic, containerized environments, especially given rapid growth of API-based traffic.
This webinar will explore the growing threats that telco service providers face to infrastructure and applications, including API vulnerabilities and sophisticated DDoS attacks targeting core and edge networks. We will present the SUSE Rancher Prime + Radware Kubernetes Web Application and API Protection (KWAAP) solution, a Kubernetes-native, full-stack security framework that enables telcos to confidently deploy, scale, and secure Kubernetes environments across on-premises, hybrid, multi-cloud, and edge locations.
Discover how Radware's industry-leading application, API, and DDoS protection deliver highly accurate detection and mitigation with behavioral analysis and real-time signature generation, crucial for combating zero-day attacks. We will detail Radware's flexible deployment options, including distributed protection across large-scale interconnected networks and peak protection services with a global network of 19 scrubbing centers offering 12 Tbps of mitigation capacity for even the largest volumetric attacks. Complementing this, SUSE Rancher Prime provides centralized Kubernetes management and includes SUSE Security for deep runtime container security and policy enforcement, ensuring compliance and operational efficiency for your 5G and edge-native workloads.
Learn how this joint solution reduces risk, accelerates DevSecOps, and maintains control over rapidly growing Kubernetes workloads without increasing operational overhead.
