TSB 189: eSIM and Sim Swapping

The technology blog and podcast and TSB

Hello everyone, welcome to the security box, podcast 189. On this program, we're going to cover news and notes, the landscape and esim whcih may or may not be as secure as you think.

ESIM and sim swapping

ESIM is relatively new, but one of my buddies has it. He says its much better since you don't need a Sim card. But is it? The blog post is titled E-sim is not as safe as you think and the article is titled SIM swappers hijacking phone numbers in eSIM attacks. We'll take the most important paragraphs I think, but the article is linked here. And now that we have the RSS working to show HTML, you can now follow along through RSS too. Woohoo!
