DNA and the City of Vantaa have concluded a three-year extension agreement on the delivery of an even larger set of telecommunications services to the City of Vantaa. In the future, DNA will provide telecommunications services to the City of Vantaa as a full service. The agreement also includes cyber security services as an option.

The contract period is initially three years, after which the agreement will continue to be valid until further notice. The total value of the agreement for the first three years is over EUR 8 million.

The solution ordered from DNA includes, for example, all connections of the city, the LANs and WLANs of offices, firewall services and the Internet connections delivered in connection with them, online authorization solutions and any additional services and optionally a cyber security service.

“We are glad to be able to continue our long-term cooperation with the City of Vantaa. The extension agreement will significantly boost the development of the telecommunications network of the city, as we can now build the service as a single entity, including cyber security,” says Kenneth Grönroos, DNA’s Public Sector Sales Director.

“With this solution, the City of Vantaa aims to achieve a secure and trouble-free telecommunications network, which will provide a good foundation for future services. With cyber security and access control solutions, the City of Vantaa strives to improve the security of its services considerably. We and the service provider share a strong understanding that digitisation requires excellently working basic infrastructure services,” says Martti Lipponen, Deputy Mayor of Group Services at the City of Vantaa.

The City of Vantaa has been DNA’s customer since 2014, when TDC, a provider of corporate data and communications solutions, became part of DNA. The original agreement between TDC and the City of Vantaa had been concluded in 2011.

Älypuhelinten käyttö vähenee pienillä lapsilla – pelkkä rajoittaminen ei silti riitä20.5.2026 09:15:00 EEST | Tiedote

DNA panostaa vahvasti ja pitkäjänteisesti lasten digiturvataitojen kehittämiseen yhteistyökumppaninsa Suojellaan Lapsia ry:n kanssa, joka on järjestänyt pienille koululaisille digiturvatyöpajoja jo useamman vuoden ajan. Tänä keväänä yhtiö jakoi lisäksi digitaitojen tehtävävihkoja yli 230 000 suomalaiseen kotiin. Vaikka älypuhelinten käyttö aloitetaan aiempaa myöhemmin, lapset kohtaavat verkossa suuriakin riskejä – ja siksi digiturvataitojen merkitys korostuu entisestään. Aihe korostuu juuri nyt, kun koululaisten kesälomat alkavat ennen vanhempien lomakautta. Kesäkuussa moni lapsi viettää pitkiä aikoja kotona ja verkossa ilman aikuisen valvontaa, mikä lisää riskiä kohdata haitallista sisältöä tai epäasiallisia yhteydenottoja.

Smartphone use is declining among small children – but limiting the use is not enough20.5.2026 09:15:00 EEST | Press release

DNA is consistently developing children’s digital safety skills together with its partner Protect Children Association, which has been organizing digital safety workshops for young schoolchildren for several years. This spring, the company also distributed digital skills exercise booklets to more than 230,000 Finnish homes. Although children are starting to use smartphones later than before, they still face major risks online – which makes digital safety skills more important than ever. The topic is particularly relevant right now, as school summer holidays begin before many parents start their own vacations. In June, many children spend long periods at home and online without adult supervision, which increases the risk of encountering harmful content or inappropriate contact.
