Are You Sure Your Mobile Network is Secure?

NOTE: This is Part 2 of a 2 Part series covering the vulnerabilities in today’s mobile networks and how service providers can address them.

In the first part of this blog, I discussed the pervasiveness of mobile devices and some of the security vulnerabilities facing mobile service providers.

Are You Sure Your Mobile Network is Secure?

NOTE: This is Part 1 of a 2 Part series covering the vulnerabilities in today’s mobile networks.

GSMA Intelligence estimates there are 8.6 billion mobile connections, including licensed cellular IoT devices in the world today. Moreover, there are approximately 5 billion unique mobile subscribers, or over two-thirds of the world’s population.  All of this equates to 1.7 devices per unique subscriber and this figure is growing every day. Wow!

Telecom Continues To Open Wider As NFV Ecosystems Progress

Open Telecom initiatives continue to grow, as the benefits of belonging to NFV ecosystems are so compelling: working together, private cloud infrastructure, software and systems vendors are helping service providers "future proof" their networks and improve service agility, while avoiding vendor lock-in and continuing to build the basis for the development and launching of new and innovative services. 

Canada's Connected Future

Bridging Private and Public Clouds for Advanced Real-Time Communications as a Service: Moving Beyond the WebRTC Gateway

Hundreds of companies offer WebRTC solutions for enterprise communications, collaboration, and embedded voice, video and messaging features on web pages and in mobile apps. As WebRTC continues to mature, what large enterprises need from their Communications Services Providers (CSPs) – companies like Verizon, AT&T, CenturyLink, BT, Orange, Telefonica, Vodafone and other global and national network operators – are solutions that pull through their “carrier class” redundancy, scalability and security.

Get in Bed with Embedded Communications by Falling in Love with Your Apps Again

What would your work life be like if you could reach exactly the right person at exactly the right time, and have your questions answered in seconds, not minutes, hours or days?

Work would get done a lot faster, stress levels would decrease substantially, and the speed of doing business would flow instead of ebbing and flowing.

For most of history, communications have been asynchronous, and even synchronized communications has often required people to switch from one application to another.

Using Vision and Innovation to Stay a Step Ahead of the Market

When I joined GENBAND in early 2015 I had firsthand knowledge of the innovation that was taking place at the company and that’s one of the things that made the organization so attractive to me.

Staking out leadership positions across this dynamic landscape is part of our DNA.
