Caribbean Telecoms Must Secure Digital Trust | Guyana News
Description
Abraham Smith, CEO of One Communications Guyana, warns Caribbean telecoms they’re no longer just phone providers—they’re digital guardians. As mobile numbers now control bank accounts, government access, and digital identities, telcos must urgently upgrade security to combat evolving fraud like SIM swaps that can hijack users’ entire digital lives. Smith calls for tighter KYC processes, specialized fraud expertise, stronger identity protections, and cross-sector collaboration between telcos, banks, fintechs, and regulators to secure the region’s digital future.
