    25 October 2023: Getting the Most from Analytics

    How much could comms providers increase their profits if they made better use of analytics? Is there a conflict between the apparent certainty of mining data and the inherent uncertainty of managing risk?

Now based in Auckland, Mike has broad experience of working as a manager and consultant for telcos in more than 40 different countries, including 6 years as Director of Fraud and Revenue Assurance at Australian operator Telstra.

    18 October 2023: Refiling Fraud

    Refiling has become a scourge on the telecoms industry, effectively serving as a tax paid by honest telcos to crooks, before it is passed on to consumers through higher charges overall. However, governments and law enforcement agencies pay no attention to this crime because of the mistaken belief that telcos who systematically cheat other telcos can sustainably lower prices paid by consumers. The authorities take no interest in refiling despite it being another version of the CLI spoofing that is now used by scammers to trick consumers. The failure to act in one domain has spilled over into a much worse societal problem because organized crime is indifferent to whether CLI manipulation is used to enable theft from businesses or from ordinary people. It has been left to telcos to counter this lawlessness, but there are techniques and technologies that can be used to detect and prevent refiling. Arnd Baranowski, CEO of Oculeus, joins us to explain the options available to honest telcos. Topical news items are also debated by the show’s three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.

    11 October 2023: The Wider Threat Posed by Denial of Service Attacks

    How severe are the risks to the rest of society when hackers are determined to take networks down? Access to mobile networks and the internet has been a game-changer that has improved the lives of billions of people worldwide but this also means the disruption caused by a loss of service can be much more serious. What happens when individuals become dependent on networks for everyday tasks like paying their bus fare, doing their grocery shopping, obtaining credit, and interacting with the government? We talk about the fallout from the Anonymous Sudan attacks on Nigeria, Kenya and other countries, and the wider risk implications of becoming dependent on networks with two guests who will be familiar from previous episodes of the show: Kenyan telecoms consultant Joseph Nderitu, and Nixon Wampamba, currently at MTN Nigeria. Other topical news are also discussed by the show's three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.

    4 October 2023: Turning Bank ID into Caller ID

    The global banking system may have already solved the problem of spoofed phone calls and online identities; the solution just needs to be explained to telco regulators and internet engineers. The story begins in the aftermath of the banking crisis of 2007-08, when the leaders of the G20 countries sought to prevent the same thing ever happening again by instituting a Financial Stability Board to monitor global banking. One challenge they faced is the impossibility of knowing how much financial risk is being taken unless you first know about all the banks that exist worldwide, and which banks own which other banks. This was addressed with the creation of the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) in 2014. Some of the problems faced by the global comms industry have similar issues at root. For example, US agencies like the Federal Communications Commission would like to reduce illegal robocalls but they never had a registry of all the comms businesses that make and convey calls within the USA, and their attempts to build a registry for foreign telcos are unlikely to ever succeed. But what if the recipient of a phone call could tell who was phoning them because they were shown a secure digital signature that corresponds to the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) of the originating business? Such a method could obviously be applied to stopping scammers from impersonating banks, but could also be adopted by many other businesses too, and could eventually be generalized so that everybody has their own identifier, using the same technology and series of codes. The potential to extend the telecoms use of the methods underpinned by GLEIF will be discussed with three expert guests: - Stephan Wolf, CEO of GLEIF - Timothy Ruff, blockchain pioneer and General Partner at Digital Trust Ventures - Randy Warshaw, veteran telecoms executive and CEO of Provenant Topical news items are also debated by the show’s three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.

    20 September 2023: Quantum Computing Is Already a Threat

    Quantum computers are difficult to build today, but their radically different design means they can rapidly crack encryption codes that would defeat any other computer. Many encryption algorithms that currently protect the privacy of electronic comms and banking transactions will soon be rendered ineffective. Comms providers already need to be conscious of the risks of messages being intercepted today just so they can be decrypted and exploited in future. We discuss the timescales for the evolution of quantum computing and the enhanced security measures already needed to protect our way of life with Ian Deakin, Principal Technologist at the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS). Topical news items are also debated by the show’s presenters: Lee Scargall, a senior risk executive and consultant with considerable international experience; Eric Priezkalns, Editor of Commsrisk; and Sarah Delphey, formerly of Bandwidth and now VP of Trust Solutions at Numeracle.

Topical news items are also debated by the show’s three regular presenters, industry analyst Ed Finegold, senior risk executive Lee Scargall, and the Editor of Commsrisk, Eric Priezkalns.
