To help these technologies work better together while maintaining security, the Global System Mobile Association provides global industry specifications-guided by industry leaders-to help the ecosystem navigate these challenges.

Last November, the GSMA launched its new process for the governance and approval of Industry Specifications.

This included the creation of the Industry Specifications Approving Group as the oversight and approval body for all Industry Specification work.

"The growing complexity of the ecosystem and increasing threat of fraud-through spam, scams and spoofs-make it even more important that industry specifications exist to help service providers interoperate worldwide while keeping their customers safe and maintaining the integrity of trusted communications platforms."

"As advanced telecommunications services like 5G roaming, Internet of Things and Rich Communication Services become more widely adopted, access to these depends on standardization and interoperability across all platforms. ISAG will play an important role to help make this happen," Drake continued.

The ISAG consists of senior representatives of the industry and includes service provider and non-service provider GSMA members.
