Mobileum Chosen to Power NTT Communications’ Global Connected Car Initiative

Mobileum, a leading provider of telecommunications analytics solutions, has been chosen by NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com) to provide the technology platform for its global connected car project. The project will entail the implementation of a comprehensive suite for connected cars, comprising of a Connectivity Management Platform, IoT Fraud Management, and IoT Service Assurance Solutions.

As a subsidiary of the NTT Group, NTT Com has opted to collaborate with Mobileum in order to deliver cutting-edge technology solutions to the global car OEM business case. This partnership is poised to revolutionize the connected car market by offering advanced connectivity management, testing, and fraud prevention solutions. This integrated approach will encompass eSIM connectivity management, quality testing, and fraud detection and prevention across NTT Com’s connected car portfolio.

Juniper Research projects that the number of connected cars is set to reach 367 million by 2027, marking a 91% increase from 192 million in 2023. Car manufacturers are increasingly focusing on providing connected car infotainment, safety, and utility services to generate new digital revenue streams and enhance customer experiences. In light of this, a secure and reliable platform that ensures the quality of these services is indispensable.

NTT Com’s adoption of Mobileum’s integrated solution, which includes a Connectivity Management Platform (CMP) and Service Assurance and Fraud Management solutions, will help ensure a consistent and high-quality customer journey for car manufacturers. This decision will empower NTT Com to deploy, test, and secure extensive connected infrastructures to meet the evolving needs of the automotive industry.

As the automotive industry embraces more digital services and a growing fleet of connected cars, concerns about continuous connectivity, security, and fraud risks have escalated. The surge in data generated by connected cars has left corporate commercial fleets vulnerable to ransomware threats, posing a risk to consumer privacy and security. To tackle these challenges, NTT Com will rely on Mobileum’s solutions to mitigate potential risks and ensure a safe and secure IoT connectivity experience for its advanced vehicles and mobility customers.

Mobileum’s IoT Fraud Management solution, which utilizes Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, will enable NTT Com to assess risks and implement and monitor remediation plans. Additionally, the IoT Service Assurance solution empowers OEMs to deliver reliable services domestically and internationally, ensuring comprehensive coverage and seamless service continuity for IoT deployments.
