GSMA NESAS
Consult our experts. We are happy to support you.
The Network Equipment Security Assurance Scheme (NESAS) is a collaboration jointly led by 3GPP and the GSMA, open to all vendors of network equipment products that support 3GPP defined functions. NESAS focuses on strengthening the level of security for 5G and LTE networks by following established best practices and schemes that provide security assurance. The NESAS scheme consists of two parts: the NESAS audit and the NESAS Security Assurance Specifications (SCAS) testing. The audits involve internal and external assessments of the vendor’s processes, while SCAS testing uses 3GPP-defined security test cases to assess the network equipment products that are developed and maintained with those processes.
What atsec offers:
atsec is both a GSMA appointed NESAS auditor and a 17025 authorized network product evaluator, able to assess products for compliance with 3GPP-defined security test specifications.
Our NESAS portfolio encompasses the following services:
- A readiness assessment to help you estimate the level of effort required for your product to comply with NESAS requirements
- NESAS security audits resulting in the GSMA listing
- Testing of network products according to applicable SCASes
- Education and training for vendors and telecommunication operators on the topic of NESAS security audits

Why our services are important to you:
The goal of the GSMA NESAS is to provide one universal and global security assurance framework to raise confidence and trust in mobile network equipment.
The scheme accomplishes this through auditing and testing network equipment vendors and their products against a security baseline to demonstrate to network operators that vendors and their products are conforming to the desired standard.
atsec’s testing services will enable you to navigate these audits and tests successfully, allowing you to prove your compliance to network operators with confidence.
