Keynote Address: Increasing Telecom Operators Revenues while protecting Customers.
Threat detection organizations have found that the monthly volume of all threat activities increased significantly within the first two months of the pandemic. These include push-threats such as spam, impersonation, malwares and URL blockings. The pandemic has also created further opportunities for threat actors. Almost all the known types of cyber-attacks have been reinvigorated with the COVID-19 pandemic themes, including business email compromise, credential phishing, malware and spam email campaigns.
To improve resiliency, cross-stakeholder collaboration and coordination, as well as cooperation between public and private sector leaders is needed. In this keynote address, we delve deeper into solutions and services for telecom operators to protect customer data, and increase their revenue.
