ABSTRACT
The talk will discuss vulnerability in 4G VoLTE networks, in particular the need to monitor and secure the information exchanged between devices and the network given the increased levels of information provided by the tech. I’ll detail the O2 vulnerability as an example of what poor management and oversight of a VoLTE network looks like, and explain why such an issue can occur.
