Information security is another area where we feel
a great responsibility to use our expertise for the
common good. As a company we hold a special
position in society because we own infrastructure
of vital social significance. We also have other
important major social players on our customer
list. Our security experts monitor the current
threat picture closely at all times. We have also
accumulated high-technology security expertise in
our TSOC and ART entities, and in this chapter we
explain a little about the basis of their operations.
Norway is still a seafaring nation. Business activities
and leisure sailing take place at sea along our
long Norwegian coast and on the continental
shelf. Telenor Maritim Radio plays a very special
role in our company. As well as being a supplier of
commercial services to a seafaring market, Maritim
Radio also plays a key role in rescue operations
and other incidents when vessels have an acute
need for assistance. Furthermore, Maritim Radio
carries out safety inspections and issues licences
and certificates, tasks which also are essential to
enhancing safety at sea.
