Telefónica Adopts Juniper Networks Solutions to Enhance Network Security

Singapore (Sept 26, 2016) – Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), an industry leader in automated, scalable
and secure networks, and Telefónica, a leading service provider with more than 347 million
customers worldwide, today announced that Telefónica has chosen Juniper
Networks® SRX Series
Services Gateways as the preferred
solution for delivering their global network security.

Additionally, Juniper will provide Telefónica
with Professional
Services to increase its
overall network stability for enhanced business operations. Telefónica will
also continue to benefit from Juniper’s in-depth knowledge of network
operations and infrastructure, as well as Juniper’s ability to incorporate new
network technologies to help innovate and evolve Telefónica’s business over the
long-term to enable a security first posture in building networks.

The new cloud-based network architecture with
integrated security functions will allow Telefónica to scale, automate and
simplify its business operations, and improve network performance while
future-proofing to enable a software defined secure network (SDSN) where security
issues can be detected and where mitigating policy can be enforced anywhere in
the network.

integrated threat intelligence, delivered on the industry’s most scalable and

training and onsite support, as well as legacy migration, installation and maintenance
