Zayo and Corning expand their fibre supply deal to secure critical cable capacity for AI, cloud, enterprise, and VoIP network growth through 2030. With 15,000 new route miles planned, the agreement boosts backbone resilience, accelerates high-capacity connectivity, and reinforces fibre as essential to scalable telecom and VoIP infrastructure deployment worldwide.
The launch of the Communications Cybersecurity Information Sharing and Analysis Center (C2 ISAC) marks a pivotal shift in tackling AI-driven cyber threats. With leaders like AT&T and Verizon, this initiative aims to bolster VoIP security by enhancing cybersecurity intelligence exchange. As cyber threats evolve, collaboration becomes vital for protecting critical VoIP infrastructure.
Zayo Europe is enhancing its footprint in Germany by deploying Ciena’s advanced optical technology across a 3,000 km fibre network. Offering 400G wave services with Ciena’s Reconfigurable Line System and WaveLogic 6 Extreme solutions, Zayo meets rising data demands driven by AI and cloud adoption.
A significant increase in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks has been reported by Zayo, with the telecommunications sector suffering the most. According to the company’s annual DDoS Insights Report, the past year saw a dramatic rise in both the frequency and severity of these cyber assaults. Businesses found themselves paying an average of £4,700 for every minute under attack, culminating in an average total cost of £325,000.
