Strengthened scoring criteria and expanded benchmarking underscore BroadForward’s leadership in global roaming signaling security and Firewall solutions
Amersfoort, 19 November 2025, Kaleido today announced that the BroadForward signaling security portfolio has been awarded Champion status in the latest Kaleido Roaming Vendor Hub Report, reaffirming the company’s position at the forefront of innovation and excellence in global roaming and interconnect security. This recognizes BroadForward as one of the top-performing vendors in the signaling security category.
Kaleido Intelligence’s Roaming Vendor Hub Report is widely regarded as the roaming industry’s most comprehensive and credible competitive intelligence study. The 2025 edition encompasses five months of rigorous research, evaluating 79 vendors and 185 roaming product offerings across 10 service areas. Its findings play a key role in guiding operators as they evaluate partners across an increasingly complex roaming landscape. Within the signaling security category, where 21 providers were assessed in depth, BroadForward’s outstanding performance secured its Champion status despite the heightened difficulty of this year’s scoring framework.
Nitin Bas, Chief of Strategy & Insights at Kaleido Intelligence commented; “BroadForward’s ranking stands out as one of the strongest four among the 21 signaling security providers evaluated this year. Achieving Champion status was more difficult than ever due to raised scoring thresholds raised. Yet BroadForward exceeded the new benchmark with a performance that clearly reflects its technical leadership, innovation velocity, and consistent delivery to operators. Their results place them firmly among the most influential players shaping the future of roaming security.”
