Telenor Connexion security expert, Jimmy Johansson, will be speaking at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Johansson, who was involved in the development of GSMA's IoT Security Guidelines, will highlight the importance of security when connecting services and products.
The goal of the Internet of Things Security Guidelines, which have been developed in consultation with Telenor Connexion and other mobile operators, is to provide the implementer of an IoT technology or service with a set of design guidelines for building a secure product.
As more products become connected they are also exposed to potential “hacking” attacks, fraud or misusage. Hence improving privacy, integrity and security becomes a critical part of a M2M service deployment program. Telenor Connexion’s new end-to-end security service, eSEC, helps customers with a positive security business case by reducing complexity, increasing security and simplifying M2M.
