Mobile security becoming 'impossible': Bernabè

GSMA chairman Franco Bernabè sent a warning today about the dangers of the over-the-top (OTT) invasion.

“With emergence of OTT players means security and privacy are becoming increasingly challenging and in some cases impossible,” he said in his keynote.

He said the GSM industry had built in strong privacy and security protections since its infancy, and called on operators to “passionately defend the core elements that have ensured our previous waves of success.”
