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.

DNA:n data paljastaa skrollaamisen ääripäät – vähiten skrollataan Taivassalossa, eniten Rovaniemellä22.10.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Tiedote

DNA:n mobiiliverkon dataan perustuva tarkastelu paljastaa huomattavia eroja Suomen kuntien välillä. Mobiilidataa käytetään älypuhelimilla vähiten Taivassalossa ja eniten Rovaniemellä. Vertailussa tarkasteltiin DNA:n kuluttaja-asiakkaiden mobiilidatan käyttöä älypuhelimilla vuoden 2026 alusta elokuun loppuun. Skrollailun vastapainoksi on hyvä myös muistaa irrottautua älylaitteilta esimerkiksi marraskuussa vietettävänä Älyvapaapäivänä.

DNA's data reveals Finland’s scrolling extremes – Taivassalo scrolls the least, Rovaniemi the most22.10.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release

An analysis based on DNA’s mobile network data reveals considerable differences between Finnish municipalities. Smartphone mobile data usage is the lowest in Taivassalo and highest in Rovaniemi. The comparison examined mobile data usage on smartphones among DNA’s consumer customers from the beginning of 2026 until the end of August. As a counterbalance to all the scrolling, it is also worth taking a break from smart devices every now and then, for example on Smart Device Free Day (Älyvapaapäivä) in November.
