Western governments have been looking at open radio access network technology to expand the availability of equipment from vendors outside of China.

The vendor knows cooperation and artificial intelligence will be key to driving the open radio access network ecosystem.

DNS is one of the most fundamental areas of networking and it could be at risk in a post-quantum era. It's a challenge that Verisign is taking aim at

Recently announced job cuts will impact around 5% of Dish Network's workforce.

But, AT&T's late-year decision could set the ecosystem up for a more bountiful 2024.

Prior to the deal being announced, Ericsson was not viewed as a leading open radio access network vendor.

“I'm glad that this decision was not because of our performance, because of our technology or the performance of our services,” Pekka Lundmark said.

“I don't know that the way they've chosen to do it is necessarily what I've seen work in the past,” Samsung VP Alok Shah said.

The Open Source Security Foundation releases 10 guiding principles that aim to help organizations develop more secure software.

And open radio access network is coming, "I promise," technology EVP Chris Sambar said.

Its latest success is with Germany’s O2 Telefónica, which is working to lab and field test open radio access network components.

The FTC says issues involving competition and fairness could arise around control of the key building blocks of generative artificial intelligence: data, talent and computational resources.

"The companies that are really betting big on open RAN, they're going to have to survive the winter," Mobile Experts' Joe Madden said.
