Description: Technical security controls in the context of telecommunications security refer to the technological measures implemented to protect information systems and networks. These controls are essential to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data transmitted over the network. They include a variety of techniques and tools, such as data encryption, user authentication, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and network segmentation. The implementation of these controls is crucial, as modern networks support not only voice and data communication but also enable a wide range of critical applications, from autonomous vehicles to the Internet of Things (IoT). The complexity and speed of these networks require a robust and dynamic approach to security, necessitating the constant updating of technical controls to address new threats and vulnerabilities. In this sense, technical security controls are an integral part of the security architecture, ensuring that networks are resilient against cyberattacks and that user data is protected at all times.
