Abstract
Methods and systems are described herein for improvements for cybersecurity of telecommunication devices. For example, cybersecurity for telecommunication devices may be improved by analyzing activity log data of telecommunication devices for a candidate event (e.g., the uploading of malware) and disabling one or more services of a telecommunication device. By doing so, cybersecurity for telecommunication devices may be improved by detecting a possible malware intrusion attempt and disabling one or more services of the telecommunication devices. For example, activity log data of telecommunication devices may be obtained. A candidate event indicating malware may be detected in the activity log data. A number of proximate telecommunication devices satisfying a proximity threshold condition may be determined. The number of proximate telecommunication devices that satisfy a density threshold condition may be determined. Responsive to the number of telecommunication devices satisfying a density threshold condition, services of telecommunication devices may be disabled.
