NITDA Alerts Nigerians To eSIM Security Flaw Exploited Globally The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) has warned of a critical vulnerability in embedded SIM (eSIM) technology that could allow attackers to hijack devices, intercept communications, and clone eSIM profiles. The flaw, linked to outdated GSMA TS 48 test profiles, affects over 2 billion smartphones, tablets, wearables, and IoT devices worldwide. NITDA urged device makers and service providers to apply Kigen OS patches via OTA updates, adopt the updated GSMA TS 48 version 7.0 standard, and remove legacy profiles to block exploitation. The agency stressed that swift action is essential to avert large-scale cyberattacks and protect user data. #CyberSecurity #NITDA #eSIM #NigeriaTech
