Bakcell Launches Security+ in Collaboration with Whalebone

Whalebone has partnered with Bakcell, part of Azerconnect Group, to launch Security+, the first network-based cybersecurity service in Azerbaijan. This marks a key step in expanding Whalebone’s presence in the Caucasus region and delivering protection to users across the globe.

Security+ is built on Whalebone Aura and provides immediate, network-level protection for Bakcell’s mobile customers. No apps, no updates – threats are blocked directly in the network. 


The service is initially available to B2C mobile users, offering protection for anyone connected to Bakcell’s network. In the next phase, coverage will expand to fixed-line customers and business users, ensuring comprehensive protection across all key customer segments.


Market-Relevant Threat Intelligence

Whalebone delivers threat intelligence tailored to each region it serves. Instead of depending only on global data feeds, it continuously incorporates insights from real-world activity within local networks, as well as data from local CERTs. This results in threat detection that reflects the language, infrastructure, and attack patterns specific to each market – including Azerbaijan..


For Bakcell, this means users receive more precise protection against region-specific phishing attempts, harmful websites, and other threats that may go undetected by global threat databases.


With this launch, Whalebone continues its mission to deliver simple and effective cybersecurity to everyday users – now reaching millions more in a new region.
