Ericsson is sharing R&D capabilities and cyber security, 5G and service evolution competences with global technology company Leonardo to improve operations and security in public safety and industrial sectors, with some specific solutions and opportunities to be made available to communications service providers and other ecosystem partners.
The partnership will address cyber security threats and enable integration and interoperability with existing narrowband digital communications. This will be done, Ericsson says, by using LTE and 5G technologies to design and deliver solutions to provide first responders such as firefighters, emergency medical service personnel and policemen with fast and secure communications to save lives.
