Additionally, Nokia will secure Norlys’ network using its NetGuard solutions, including Endpoint Detection and Response, Privileged Access Management, and Certificate Management. The agreement also encompasses holistic managed security, performance, and assurance services, leveraging Nokia’s 7220 IXR platforms with SR Linux NOS for data center connectivity, and Nokia MantaRay NM for automated network management and optimization.
