en.Wedoany.com Reported - Mavenir has announced that it has become the first tier-one telecom infrastructure software provider to receive BSI NESAS certification for its 5G packet core network functions. The software company, which specializes in building cloud-native, AI-driven mobile networks, has had its Network Repository Function (NRF) pass security standard audits, confirming its suitability for use as a critical component in German public telecommunications networks.
In accordance with the requirements of the German Telecommunications Act and the Act on the Federal Office for Information Security, the mandatory BSI NESAS certification came into effect on January 1, 2026. Mavenir is at the forefront of regulatory preparedness, currently certifying its entire packet core and IMS product portfolio, with a target completion date in the third quarter of 2026, thereby supporting operators in deploying compliant, secure, and cloud-native network architectures at scale.
The certificate was issued by the certification body of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) under the BSI NESAS certification program, a cybersecurity certification built upon the internationally recognized GSMA NESAS security assurance framework. BSI NESAS combines rigorous evaluation of product development and lifecycle processes with hands-on security testing of actual products, setting high standards for critical network infrastructure.
Fabian Hodouschek, Head of Certification at the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), stated that by issuing the first BSI NESAS cybersecurity certificate to manufacturer Mavenir, a significant contribution has been made to securing Germany's mobile telecommunications networks. This is the first certificate for a critical 5G core network component used by German public 5G mobile network operators, confirming that Mavenir's Network Repository Function (NRF) and its development and lifecycle processes meet the standards of the internationally recognized NESAS security framework.
Omar Shahdad, Senior Vice President of Operations at Mavenir, stated that this certification validates Mavenir's commitment to not only providing industry-leading 5G software but also software that meets the strictest national cybersecurity standards. As regulators across Europe raise cybersecurity standards, Mavenir is well-prepared.
