Telef·nica Espa·a is the first affiliate to launch the network-based security service, after the strategic partnership was announced in 2017 between Telef·nica and Allot.
Movistar Conexi·n Segura ' ground-breaking service will protect consumer connections from malware and fraud threats on fixed and mobile networks.
Telef·nica Espa·a, the leading Telecommunications Operator in Spain with a world-class fixed and mobile network, together with Allot Ltd. a global provider of innovative network intelligence and security solutions for service providers worldwide, joined forces last year to deliver an innovative, comprehensive, network-based cybersecurity solution for consumers.
