Gemalto has announced that Verizon Wireless, a leading U.S. mobile operator, is adopting the latest version of Gemalto’s LinqUs Advanced OTA[1] (AOTA) solution for 4G LTE services.
Gemalto’s solution serves as the foundation for state-of-the-art services like next-generation subscriber provisioning and lifecycle management. AOTA supports a more sophisticated, robust card management tool for Verizon’s growing network demands and is a scalable, secure framework for deploying trusted solutions. Verizon can easily address new markets like IoT, M2M, and other emerging business opportunities. The LinqUs AOTA framework also enables Verizon to quickly integrate functionalities such as Trusted Services Hub (TSH), roaming management, and secure mobile authentication for digital signature services.
“Gemalto is an excellent technology partner and it made sense to migrate to the Advanced OTA platform to better position Verizon for expansion into subscription management, new Trusted Services Hub (TSH) opportunities and IoT,” said Adam Koeppe, Vice President of Network Technology for Verizon Wireless.
“We are pleased Verizon has chosen Gemalto for the next step of its technology roadmap,” said Rodrigo Serna, President of the Americas at Gemalto. “Our Advanced OTA platform facilitates large-scale updates enabling Verizon to quickly implement and deliver innovative services to millions of customers across the U.S.”
