VNPT cooperates with Nokia and F-Secure to develop digital infrastructure and build a safe digital environment.

VNPT's extensive cooperation with leading Finnish technology corporations is a testament to Vietnamese enterprises' efforts in connecting global knowledge and bringing advanced technology to serve people and society.

VNPT and Nokia collaborate to boost digital infrastructure development.

On October 21st, in Helsinki, Finland, in the presence of General Secretary To Lam and Mr. Matias Marttinen, Minister of Economy and Employment of Finland, Vietnam Post and Telecommunications Group (VNPT) awarded a contract to Nokia Corporation to develop VNPT's wireless access network in Hanoi, border provinces, and the Southern region for the period 2025-2026.

With the signed wireless access network development contract, VNPT and Nokia will jointly implement the project in the 2025-2026 period, focusing on improving mobile coverage quality, especially in border areas and key socio-economic centers. This is a concrete step by VNPT in investing in and upgrading telecommunications infrastructure, implementing the Party and State's policy on developing national digital infrastructure, serving the goal of comprehensive digital transformation and improving the quality of life for the people.

Along with expanding infrastructure investment, VNPT continues to focus on improving the quality of telecommunications and digital services, better meeting the information and connectivity needs of people, government, and businesses.

This cooperation agreement not only aims to strengthen national digital infrastructure capacity but also contributes to consolidating the cooperative relationship between Vietnam and Finland, especially in the field of information and communication, one of the pillars of strategic cooperation between the two countries.

Nokia is a leading Finnish multinational telecommunications and technology corporation that has played a pioneering role in developing global mobile network standards such as 4G, 5G, and other emerging technologies. In Vietnam, Nokia has had a long-standing and effective partnership with VNPT in many areas: mobile communication networks, fixed broadband fiber optic networks, transmission networks, and the Internet of Things (IoT).

This signing event continues to affirm VNPT as Nokia's strategic partner in Vietnam, together aiming at the goal of developing green and modern telecommunications infrastructure, meeting the 5G and 6G era in the future.

VNPT and F-Secure collaborate to build a secure digital ecosystem in Vietnam.

On the same day, VNPT and F-Secure Group signed a memorandum of understanding for strategic cooperation aimed at protecting people from cyberattacks and online fraud, while also expanding cooperation into the ASEAN regional market.

Accordingly, the two sides will jointly carry out many activities in the fields of technology and training, including: sharing intelligence information on cyber threats; organizing training programs and practical training; and improving cybersecurity capacity for VNPT's technical team.

VNPT and F-Secure will also research and test cybersecurity solutions using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), opening up opportunities for commercialization and providing services to the international market.

F-Secure is the world's leading cybersecurity group from Finland with nearly 40 years of experience in providing security solutions to users and organizations in more than 100 countries. VNPT's choice of F-Secure as a partner demonstrates VNPT's strong commitment to protecting users and building a safe and trustworthy digital environment in Vietnam.

Notably, on the same day in Vietnam, VNPT and F-Secure announced the launch of VNPT S-Defender, an online security and anti-fraud solution integrated with F-Secure's advanced technology. The service helps detect and prevent various forms of online fraud and malware, protecting people's digital identities.

The two sides will also continue to research and develop more advanced protection features for individual users, households and small businesses; while ensuring the safety of essential digital services such as e-banking, e-commerce and e-government.

These two important agreements with Nokia and F-Secure not only help VNPT consolidate its position as a leading corporation in digital infrastructure and security but also contribute positively to the national digital transformation strategy, aiming to build Vietnam into a safe, prosperous, and sustainable digital nation.
