Considering the phenomenal increase in mobile and IoT devices, data traffic subscribers, and SIM connections, how have the security challenges evolved for telecom providers?

Regardless of the security of the network connection, the consumer should be provided with the protection they need to keep them and their data safe.

We must strike a balance between security and maintaining customer trust.

Balancing security with customer trust is a delicate act.

Clear communication of the telecom provider's data usage policies, including the established protocols for sharing information with third parties such as security services and law enforcement agencies, provide transparency and clarity to the customer.

As we move towards 5G networks and a proliferation of IoT devices, we need to implement robust security measures like a zero-trust model and network segmentation.
