This Week's Top Five Stories in the Telco Industry
Cybersecurity has become one of the telco industry’s biggest balancing acts.
The same AI systems capable of detecting software flaws in seconds are also raising fears about how quickly those vulnerabilities could be exploited at scale.
Now, Verizon is stepping deeper into that debate.
The US telco giant has joined Anthropic’s Project Glasswing initiative, a cross-industry effort designed to strengthen critical infrastructure against emerging AI-driven cyber threats.
How Huawei's Tau Scaling Law Reinvents Telco Chip Design
The semiconductor industry has followed a simple formula for a long time.
It makes transistors smaller to fit more onto a chip, expecting performance to improve.
However, that model has now reached its limits as chipmakers face rising manufacturing complexity and shrinking returns from traditional scaling methods.
Huawei believes the next phase of computing depends less on shrinking components and more on moving data faster.
Why Ericsson is Building a 5G Defence Hub for Canada
Emergency services, defence teams and telco engineers are converging in Canada.
It all comes as Ericsson and the Government of Canada are establishing a new 5G innovation hub designed for high-pressure communications.
The company’s AWIN partnership with the Canadian government focuses on mission-critical wireless systems, giving first responders and defence organisations a space to test next-generation connectivity before it reaches frontline use.
How VodafoneThree Connects 50 Million Customers to Faster 5G
Britain’s mobile networks are under growing pressure as operators race to keep up with demand.
To the packed commuter trains, crowded stations and the constant stream of video calls straining networks, VodafoneThree believes it has found an answer.
The newly merged operator says it has completed what it describes as a world-first national network upgrade, integrating core and radio sharing technology across a multi-vendor 4G and 5G environment while also unlocking shared spectrum access for millions of users.
LEO Connectivity: Starlink to Power American Airlines Wi-Fi
American Airlines is preparing a major overhaul of its in-flight connectivity services through a new agreement with Starlink.
The move will see more than 500 narrowbody aircraft equipped with Low Earth Orbit satellite internet from early 2027.
This satellite rollout marks one of the largest airline deployments yet for SpaceX’s Starlink aviation service and reflects growing demand for faster, more reliable onboard connectivity as airlines compete on passenger experience.
