(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Partnership enables remote provisioning and management of embedded SIM
profiles and policies within a highly secure process
* Services to be delivered through Device Connection Platform (DCP),
Ericsson's leading Internet of Things/M2M platform, and G&D's subscription
management platform SmartTrust AirOn
* Remote SIM management and provisioning essential for building global M2M
ecosystems
Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) and Giesecke & Devrient (G&D), headquartered in Munich,
Germany, have entered a partnership to deliver end-to-end remote SIM management
services. The services will be delivered through Device Connection Platform
(DCP), Ericsson's leading Internet of Things/M2M platform, and G&D's
subscription management platform SmartTrust AirOn.
The integration of the two platforms will enable the remote provisioning and
management of embedded SIM profiles and policies within a highly secure process.
As a result, DCP-hosted operators will be able to manage embedded SIM
connectivity remotely as part of global Internet of Things/M2M solutions, and
will be well positioned to develop innovative partnerships in these areas with
original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
At the same time, enterprises and OEMs can manage embedded SIM devices across
multiple operators and regions throughout the complete device life cycle, from
manufacturing to phase-out.
The services will be delivered in accordance with the GSMA's industry-standard
Embedded SIM Specification.
The proof of concept for Ericsson and G&D's offering was recently demonstrated
at the Asia IoT Business Platform event held in Jakarta, Indonesia, on August
25 and 26, 2015. The demonstration, which also included change of subscription
between two different M2M connectivity platforms, was presented with DCP-hosted
operator Indosat, member of Ooredoo Group, and one of its partner operators.
Mirela Juravle, Head of M2M Project, INDOSAT says: "With remote subscription
management PoC in partnership with Ericsson and G&D, Indosat is the only
operator in Indonesia to showcase such innovative technology and demonstrate
it's commitment to provide services that simplify global M2M deployments in
Indonesia and South East Asia.Having a dedicated IoT/M2M expert team, Indosat
ambition is to offer a full range of M2M solutions which can be combined to
offer a flexible approach from pure M2M connectivity, managed connectivity to
one-stop-shop solutions for local and global M2M customers".
Anders Olin, Vice President, Network Functions, Ericsson, says: "Remote
management and provisioning is essential for building global M2M ecosystems that
deliver benefits for people, business and society. By enabling these
capabilities and minimizing the complexity of managing connected devices on a
worldwide scale, our partnership with G&D delivers an unparalleled experience
for operators, OEMs and enterprises exploring the possibilities of the Networked
Society."
Carsten Ahrens, Vice President, Telecommunications Division, G&D, says: "We
appreciate this partnership with Ericsson that combines the Device Connection
Platform with the highly secure subscription management capabilities of G&D's
SmartTrust AirOn platform. G&D is the market leader in subscription management
and we have developed a solution based on a professional managed service
environment that today actively manages about 2 billion SIMs and any type of
