It comes up with new vulnerabilities, has more attack surfaces and is more likely to be attacked in near future. Having wider security threats opens up new doors for intruders. The new infrastructure elements IMS, STP, SIGTRAN and SS7 network protocols have unpatched vulnerabilities and multiple entry points for DDOS, code execution, which can lead to disruption to customer's voice and data privacy.
