IoT security for enterprises: make it work, make it easy

This edition of the Industry Checkpoint series focuses on digital industries, highlighting how the market has changed in the last six months and its implications. The report considers four major developments: European operators intensifying their activities in sovereign cloud services; mobile networks growing their relevance with the emerging drone/UAV industry; operators in Japan accelerating their work in the physical AI space; and robotaxi services preparing for launch in Europe.

Telecoms operators have a distinct role to play in tackling fraud and scams. Their access to network intelligence allows them to reveal scam indicators earlier in the attack chain than other ecosystem participants can. The GSMA Data Exchange Proof of Concept shows that privacy-preserving telecoms data sharing is both feasible and effective. Its learnings provide a blueprint for moving beyond isolated pilots towards trusted, ecosystem-wide scam-intelligence infrastructure.

Operator strategies continue to evolve in the digital era as the telecoms industry seeks to capture new growth opportunities in the consumer and enterprise markets. Assessing innovation and achievements is more important than ever before. GSMA Intelligence's operator case studies provide a concise and consistent way to shine a light on and analyse operators' strategies and business models, as well as how they are launching new services. This edition analyses AT&T's expansion of its IoT Video Intelligence solution with the launch of EdgeVis Cloud.
