A fixed and fixed-mobile, 5G-ready solution, with zero-touch activation for mass consumer campaigns, drives high adoption rates. Branded reports also improve the quality and frequency of your customer engagement. ## The Need Smart and connected homes have become small IT operations. Headlines about hacked baby monitors and web sites that stream videos from hacked webcams are increasing consumers’ already valid concerns. Most consumers have neither the time nor the skills to deal with security, and they want someone else to take the lead. Most IoT ‘things’ are nowhere near as secure as PCs and smartphones. The so-called ‘Smart Home’ may be smart in terms of convenience but it’s often anything but smart in terms of security.
