Mobile Communications Best Practice Guidance

Introduction

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has identified cyber espionage activity by People’s
Republic of China (PRC) government-affiliated threat actors targeting commercial telecommunications
infrastructure. This activity enabled the theft of customer call records and the compromise of private
communications for a limited number of highly targeted individuals. While applicable to all audiences, this
guidance specifically addresses “highly targeted” individuals who are in senior government or senior political
positions and likely to possess information of interest to these threat actors. CISA is releasing this best
practice guidance to promote protections for mobile communications from exploitation by PRC-affiliated and
other malicious cyber threat actors.
