Secure network device management in a telecommunications network

A system for managing network devices, the system comprising:

• a network security system configured to:
• receive and transmit a plurality of inputs to a network device;
• store a plurality of characters for a command in an accumulator, the characters received from the network device in response to the transmitted plurality of inputs;
• receive a control input, the control input for executing the command at the network device;
• in response to receiving the control input, reproducing the command for the network device from the plurality of characters stored in the accumulator;
• and
• verify whether the reproduced command is authorized for execution at the network device including determining if the reproduced command is at least one of included in a list of authorized commands for the network device or excluded from a list of unauthorized commands for the network device, wherein at least one of the list of authorized commands and the list of unauthorized commands is based on characteristics of a user of the user computing device.

One or more non-transitory tangible computer-readable storage media storing computer-executable instructions for performing a computer process on a computing system, the computer process comprising:

• transmitting a plurality of inputs received from an input device to a network device, the plurality of inputs associated with a command executable by the network device;
• storing a plurality of characters in an accumulator, the plurality of characters received from the network device in response to the transmitted plurality of inputs;
• receiving a control input from the input device, the control input for executing the command at the network device;
• in response to receiving the control input, reproducing the command for the network device from the plurality of characters stored in the accumulator;
• and
• verifying whether the reproduced command is authorized for execution at the network device including determining if the reproduced command is at least one of included in a list of authorized commands for the network device or excluded from a list of unauthorized commands for the network device, wherein at least one of the list of authorized commands and the list of unauthorized commands is based on characteristics of a user of the user computing device.
