About Nokia
Nokia sells network security products, including NetGuard Cybersecurity Dome and Deepfield, which provide security monitoring, threat incident response, identity access management and DDoS detection and mitigation. Nokia says these products play a crucial role in security operations. Nokia acquired Deepfield on December 15, 2016.[3]
Nokia addresses telecommunication providers with networks that it describes as evolving to deliver high performance, secure connectivity ready to seize the opportunities of AI. AI and cloud providers are offered advanced optical and IP connectivity to scale faster. Nokia describes MantaRay SMO as combining network management, AI-powered automation and orchestration to enable autonomous RAN.[3]
Nokia also offers cybersecurity services. Nokia publishes threat intelligence reports. Nokia says these cybersecurity services help organizations safeguard their network, maintain the confidentiality, integrity and availability of their data, and reduce the risk of cyber-attacks.
For power utilities, Nokia offers an end-to-end cybersecurity solution that uses a multilayered, defense-in-depth approach to identify and eliminate attacks. Nokia says the security framework it describes complies with security regulations and standards such as NERC CIP, NIST, IEC and ISO. Its components include NetGuard Endpoint Security Solution for operational technology devices, NetGuard Identity Access Manager for single sign-on and centralized policy management, NetGuard Audit Compliance Manager for automated compliance reporting, and an XDR Security solution that correlates data from multiple security systems into a single dashboard. Nokia says its utilities solutions are validated through use cases and pre-testing in the Nokia Energy Innovation Center.[3][7]
On encryption, Nokia secures IP/MPLS networks with Network Group Encryption, and DWDM networks with L1 encryption provided by the 1830 Photonic Service Switch. Microwave radio links are secured with Nokia Wavence.[7]
On assurance, Nokia follows a design for security process called DFSEC for the development of network products and solutions. Nokia says its products are tested and audited in line with the GSMA Network Equipment Security Assurance Scheme (NESAS) standard. Nokia achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification for its information security management system in 2011, and describes itself as an ISO 27001:2022-certified organization. Nokia launched a dedicated CRA compliance program in 2024. Nokia offers NIS 2-compliant managed services that support customers' compliance efforts. Nokia applies strict controls to ensure secure network access and product integrity under a specialized agreement with the U.S Government.[8]
Nokia takes part in security standardization. Since 2021, Nokia's Suresh Nair has chaired the Service & System Aspect Working Group 3 (SA3), which is responsible for security in the 5G system. Nokia participates in organizations such as 3GPP, IETF, ORAN Alliance, GSMA, NIST, ETSI, ENISA, FCC CSRIC, ATIS and TSDSI. Nokia and MEO have established a strategic framework to jointly explore, validate and industrialize AI-driven network capabilities.
Nokia Bell Labs has its global headquarters in Murray Hill, New Jersey, with research locations in Antwerp, Bengaluru, Budapest, Cambridge, Espoo, Paris and Stuttgart. Nokia Bell Labs Espoo is on the Nokia headquarters campus. Nokia completed its acquisition of Infinera on February 28, 2025.[3]
