Quantum computing is the technology of the future. However, the threat it poses to cybersecurity is present today.
With new NIST standards in place and a 2030 post-quantum encryption deadline, organizations must begin protecting sensitive, long-lived data from emerging threats such as “harvest now, decrypt later.”
This is why MetTel Labs is launching a new initiative to bring together technology and security partners across networking, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, cryptography and managed services to help enterprises identify vulnerabilities and build practical road maps toward post-quantum security.

Andoni Economou, MetTel’s Chief Operating Officer, was recently featured in Fierce Network, discussing the accelerating retirement of copper landlines and the challenges businesses face as traditional POTS service disappears.
With an estimated 8.5 million commercial and government POTS lines still in use, organizations are under growing pressure to modernize critical systems, including fire alarms, elevators and security equipment.
Andoni shares how MetTel is helping organizations like the U.S. Postal Service and Department of Veterans Affairs transition away from copper while keeping essential systems connected.
The question is no longer if copper will disappear, but how prepared businesses are when it does.

Choosing the right SASE provider isn't about who checks the most boxes on a feature list.
In his latest blog, MetTel CTO Ed Fox breaks down nine areas IT leaders should evaluate when comparing managed SASE providers, from migration risk and security stack depth to global coverage and operational visibility.

Your elevator emergency phone works. Your security panel works. Your fire alarm works.
Until the copper line behind it doesn’t.
Copper retirement isn’t just about replacing old phone service. For many businesses, legacy POTS lines are still quietly supporting critical systems across hundreds or even thousands of locations.
As carriers accelerate copper shutdowns, replacement is inevitable. The real challenge is knowing where those lines still exist.
Is your business ZIP code on the clock?

The last analog problem hiding inside modern retail? Old telephone lines.
In a new article for Chain Store Age, MetTel’s VP of Mobility & IoT Max Silber explores why copper retirement is becoming an operational priority for retailers, especially when legacy POTS lines still support critical systems like fire alarms, elevators, POS terminals, and security systems.
As carriers continue retiring copper infrastructure, retailers need visibility into what lines remain, what they support and how to transition them before service disruptions create bigger problems.
Max also shares how MetTel helped JCPenney transform more than 5,000 telephone and alarm lines across 660 stores, improving visibility while projecting millions in annual telecommunications savings.

MetTel CTO, Ed Fox recently contributed to Forbes Technology Council, exploring how the rise of agentic AI is changing the enterprise security conversation.
As AI agents gain the ability to access credentials, use tools, execute code, and take action, Ed argues that organizations need to think beyond simply securing the AI model. Instead, AI agents should be treated more like privileged employees, with clearly defined access, permissions and oversight.
Read Ed’s perspective on how CIOs and CISOs can rethink security and the 5 rules for agentic AI governance: hubs.la/Q04ysfy10

When it comes to Healthcare, network downtime isn't an IT outage. It's a care outage.
From patient communications and scheduling to critical applications and connected locations, healthcare organizations depend on reliable connectivity across the entire care environment.
Diverse connectivity, automated failover, and centralized network management can reduce single points of failure and maintain continuity when disruptions occur.
Because downtime doesn't stay in IT. It ripples out to the people, systems, and services that keep healthcare moving.
Learn how MetTel helps healthcare organizations build network resilience that holds up when it matters most.

As the Internet of Things (IoT) expands across business and critical infrastructure, securing every connected device becomes increasingly complex.
In his latest piece for Nextgov/FCW, Don Parente, VP of Public Sector Sales & Solution Architecture at MetTel, explores a different approach to IoT cybersecurity: building networks that assume connected devices may eventually be compromised.
Don outlines three network-centric principles organizations can use to reduce risk:
-Separating IoT devices from administrative networks
-Limiting traffic between connected devices
-Continuously monitoring network behavior for anomalies
Read Don’s perspective on why securing IoT requires looking beyond the device itself and building a network designed to contain potential threats.
