JazzWorld has partnered with Huawei to deploy the first international commercial Unified Protection & Response (UPR) security solution within its core network. The launch follows successful verification of the solution’s commercial deployment and marks a major milestone in Jazz’s network security evolution.
The Huawei UPR solution integrates advanced security capabilities directly into the core network. By leveraging native devices and whitelisting techniques, it enables real-time threat detection, analysis, and automated response without disrupting live services. This intrinsic approach allows proactive defense against emerging cyber risks while maintaining high reliability and operational continuity.
Khalid Shehzad, Chief Technology Officer at JazzWorld, emphasized the strategic importance of this initiative: “We view security not as a cost, but as a competitive advantage – one that enables us to deliver reliable, trusted digital services while strengthening Pakistan’s telecom ecosystem. Together with Huawei, we have embedded advanced defense capabilities within our core network, completing a key pillar of Jazz’s security strategy.”
Designed for precision threat prevention, the solution operates with minimal resource overhead and ensures zero service interruption. It also simplifies operational management by enabling rapid security integration during network expansions and reducing maintenance effort, providing continuous protection against a broad spectrum of cyber threats.
This deployment strengthens Jazz’s ability to safeguard critical infrastructure and mitigate financial and operational risks. It aligns with the company’s broader digital transformation agenda, reflecting its commitment to adopting next-generation security technologies.
Through continuous collaboration and co-innovation with Huawei, Jazz aims to elevate industry standards and support Pakistan’s vision of a secure and resilient digital ecosystem. The UPR deployment sets a benchmark for telecom network security in the region, demonstrating how advanced technology can enable both safety and service reliability.
