Four telecom companies – Singapore’s Singtel, Softbank, United Arab Emirates’ Etisalat and Spain’s Telefonica – are creating the Global Telco Security Alliance.

The alliance’s four members have a total of 1.2 billion customers across 60 countries, so it has the potential to be a major cybersecurity player. Some security practitioners expect the alliance to create regional security operations centers, or SOCs, to deal with local threats.”]
