NESAS authenticity

One of the world’s standard cybersecurity evaluation organizations is NESAS. It has the support of international carriers, equipment vendors, regulators, GSMA, and 3GPP. In addition to Security Assurance Specifications, NESAS security assessments also consider product lifecycle processes. It is open to evolution and acts as an efficient mobile industry-wide network security evaluation framework. NESAS objectively measures how secure a network product is and offers the mobile industry threat analysis. It also offers general security assurance requirements, a methodology for security assurance, and definitions for critical assets. One of its major focuses is to avoid and eliminate lopsided evaluation and conflicting security assurance requirements in different markets. The body also receives regular feedback from different stakeholders in different markets around the world.
