  • TRA Participates in the Activities of IDEX 2017

Mobilk - The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA), represented by the Computer Emergency Response Team (aeCERT) and the Spectrum Management Affairs Department, participates in the activities of IDEX 2017 Exhibition and Conference, launched today in Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Center (ADNEC), and lasts for five days.

The aeCERT participation for this year includes significant topics and challenges in relation to cyber security, most importantly, an awareness presentation to highlight the enormous damage that may result from the abuse of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the absence of awareness among users about the methods of adjusting the settings securely. The team also presents the data leakage detection system, which assists the affiliates from different government entities to detect confidential data related to the entities, and which have been published mistakenly. It can also detect security vulnerabilities that could be exploited to carry out cyber-attacks. The visitors will be able to review the smart threats analysis system, which collects data on hacking incidents and associated evidence, as well as detecting sensitive undetected data that has been leaked by hackers.

Moreover, the Spectrum Management Affairs team will present the latest online systems in areas of frequency allocation and issuance of authorizations and permits for all wireless and radio services in the country. This would be implemented through a simple process and easy steps that allow the user to apply for spectrum authorization, pay the fees and print the authorization without leaving his office. The Spectrum Monitoring Section will also present its success in establishing a spectrum monitoring center in TRA, where the latest stations and software are available to support frequency allocation, solve harmful interference and provide a safe wireless communication environment in the country. Additionally, the team contributes in securing the use of frequencies in major events, and participates in reducing the cross-borders coverage of communication services from neighboring countries. 

Commenting on this participation, H.E Hamad Obaid Al Mansoori, TRA Director General, said: "IDEX Exhibition has a great importance, and it is considered a leading global platform in the field of defense industries, as well as related solutions and technologies. Hosting this event in the UAE Capital, Abu Dhabi, in addition to the distinct participation of leading companies and manufacturers is an indicator of the UAE strategic importance in this field, and reflects the sectors confidence in the growing importance acquired by the event every year."

H.E. Al Mansoori added: "Our participation this year includes a range of projects and solutions that have been developed by national teams in TRA. These solutions have shown the existence of distinct national competencies able to prove their capabilities in fields of cyber security and information security, which are the basis of a reliable infrastructure to meet the needs of smart development and transition towards smart cities. We have been able in the UAE to achieve great accomplishments in this field, which has strengthened our leading position in this field on regional and global levels."
