Kite can integrate operators from both the Telef\u00f3nica Group and third parties, consolidating information into a single environment and supporting large-scale operations.<\/p>\n<p>Telef\u00f3nica is therefore strengthening its position not only as a connectivity provider but also as an orchestrator, since the solution allows operator profiles to be downloaded quickly and without prior integrations between the different operators involved, thanks to Thales\u2019 technology and expertise in the remote management of these profiles.<\/p>\n<p>This new eSIM capability makes it easier for companies to switch connectivity providers or deploy devices across multiple geographies according to their needs, bringing significant flexibility to international projects by reducing operational times and removing technical barriers. In fact, thanks to the orchestration capabilities provided by Telef\u00f3nica, customers do not need additional technical resources.<\/p>\n<p>Juan Jos\u00e9 Gonz\u00e1lez Menaya, Head of IoT Connectivity at Telef\u00f3nica Tech, said: \u201cAt Telef\u00f3nica, in line with our purpose of becoming the best gateway to digital technologies, we continue to evolve our connectivity portfolio with the most innovative services on the market. With this new eSIM solution, we are strengthening our commitment to offering advanced, global and flexible connectivity that can adapt to the challenges of an increasingly demanding IoT market. Customers will be able to manage their operations with complete autonomy, without the need for specialist resources, and with the assurance that all orchestration capabilities are fully integrated into our systems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Eva Rudin, Executive Vice President of Mobile Connectivity Solutions at Thales, added: \u201cWe are proud to support Telef\u00f3nica in driving the next phase of secure IoT adoption worldwide. By combining our cybersecurity expertise and leadership in eSIM with Telef\u00f3nica\u2019s strong IoT ecosystem, we enable companies to deploy and manage connected devices with confidence, at scale, and in full compliance with international standards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With this launch, Telef\u00f3nica and Thales are strengthening their partnership to deliver next-generation connectivity solutions, reinforcing their commitment to a more interoperable, agile and innovative IoT ecosystem that is ready for multi-operator scenarios and global deployments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Telef\u00f3nica, through its business unit Telef\u00f3nica Tech, is launching, in collaboration with Thales, a global leader in cybersecurity&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":74203,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13059],"tags":[45405,1784,31522,33473,33474,5719],"class_list":["post-74202","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-thales","tag-analysts","tag-digitalisation","tag-iot","tag-telefonica","tag-telefonica-tech","tag-thales"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74202","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74202"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74202\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74203"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74202"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74202"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74202"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
