WeDo Technologies Publishes Best Practice for M2M Fraud Protection and Security

READING, England and LISBON, Portugal, July 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    New Whitepaper Examines New Risks of M2M Communications for Operator
Revenues and Customer Security

    WeDo Technologies [http://www.wedotechnologies.com/en/home ], a leader
in business and revenue assurance solutions, today announced the launch of
its latest whitepaper. 'Embedded Mobile (M2M) - Telecoms Fraud & Security
Management' focuses on the risks M2M services can cause operators in terms
of fraud and revenue assurance and how they can effectively deal with these
problems.

    Created by Praesidium Consulting, WeDo Tecnologies' business consulting
division, the whitepaper considers the rise of M2M devices and services
across a number of vertical sectors and the risks that they create for
Communication Service Providers' (CSPs) businesses. From the greater
complexity introduced by third party partners to new data protection issues
and the new operational procedures required, the whitepaper goes on to
outline a number of risk management and defence strategies that CSPs can
adopt to counter the threats involved.

    "M2M is an exciting technology that offers a host of benefits and
additional revenue streams to operators," said Simon Collins, WeDo
Technologies' Vice President for business consulting division, Praesidium.
"However, as with many new technologies, it also brings with it a number of
threats to both consumer security and revenue assurance. When planning for
and launching M2M strategies, operators must defend themselves and their
customers against these fraud risks in order to protect their brand
reputation and business for the long term."

    The whitepaper, available to download from
http://www.wedotechnologies.com/m2m-fraudprotection, is the accumulation
of WeDo Technologies' expertise and knowledge as leaders in the fraud
management and revenue assurance space. It is the first in a new series of
whitepapers aimed to educate CSPs on the fraud and revenue assurance
problems that can occur when launching services based on new technologies
and the management strategies required to protect against them.
