M360 UK Mobile Security and Industries Catch up

Wednesday 26 Jul 2023 ｜ M360 UK 2023 |

M360 UK 2023 began with 5G and ended in a 6G future. The two-day event provided a comprehensive 360-degree exploration of the mobile industry security landscape, with the goal of informing and debating the security priorities required to ensure the success of 5G use cases. Over 30 inspirational speakers gathered and shared best practices on how to securely unlock the value of 5G and transform industries including Aviation, Automotive, Banking, Fintech, Manufacturing, Motorsport and Telecoms.

Nothing ever stays the same in Cybersecurity. As defenders keep raising the bar, attackers keep trying harder. It is critical to establish and maintain trust while planning for agility in all areas. As private 5G core becomes more of a reality, enterprises are looking to deliver the next generation of automation and end-user services.

At M360 UK, we looked at the major Cyber Security and Fraud challenges facing the mobile industry, such as how to secure the IoT, how to leverage the power of the eSIM and APIs, and how global regulations impact the mobile industry. GSMA T-ISAC and CVD threat-sharing programmes supported by the GSMA Fraud and Security Group (FASG) demonstrated the mobile industry’s collaborative approach to identifying cyber security threats and minimising risk.
