Securing Lightweight LTE Cores for Edge Deployments

Cybersecurity considerations for lean mobile core networks in IoT and rural connectivity.

As telcos and enterprises deploy lean LTE cores for rapid connectivity in edge environments, the security risks multiply. VSI Technologies provides hardened, scalable defenses for LTE deployments in smart cities, manufacturing, and remote areas. Why Lightweight LTE Cores Are Targeted These edge-focused architectures are attractive for their agility–but lack of perimeter controls and public spectrum use opens them up to:

  • IMSI catchers and rogue base stations
  • Denial-of-service attacks via malformed packets
  • Spoofed SIM/device registration VSI's Edge Security Stack Our solution suite includes:
  • Lightweight encryption with performance-preserving key rotation
  • Subscriber session validation via behavioral fingerprinting
  • Compliance automation with FCC, 3GPP, and regional mandates Integration with LTE Test Cores VSI enables testbed hardening with simulated threat injection and LTE-specific forensic analytics for developers and operators. Use Case: Remote Manufacturing Site A client used VSI's secure LTE stack to connect Io

T devices in an air-gapped mine site–achieving 98.5% uptime with zero SIM abuse over 12 months.

Conclusion Connectivity without security is exposure. VSI secures the LTE edge.
