Subscriber Data Management

Scroll Down

Overview

The mobile is forever-present in the evolving world. Whether it's for personal or business communication, over 4 billion mobile phone users worldwide are benefiting from the constant networked connections available to them via mobile operator services. The mobile handset and SIM have become important devices to manage your contacts and organize daily activities.

While the mobile phone is omnipresent, it is still susceptible to damage and loss. According to studies, it takes about 6 months on an average, for the subscriber to completely rebuild the contacts and have the same usage level as before the loss. This results in substantial loss of revenue that the mobile operator could have earned. Effective subscriber data management is therefore essential for a mobile operator's continued revenue generation.

Personal Data Protection And Management

The Subscriber Data Management solution offers protection to all data stored in a subscriber's mobile device and SIM contacts through backup facilities. It allows storage of contacts from the SIM and handset at the mobile operator's trusted Data Backup Server. It also enables the backup of the mobile handset data (eg. tasks, events, music and video files etc)

Features

The solution uses SyncML, the mobile data synchronization (DS) standard used by mobile device manufacturers worldwide, to synchronize the mobile device data with the backend server. Once the subscriber registers, the mobile device is detected and SyncML setting are sent to configure the device.

On the other side, there is a Java™ applet on the subscriber (U)SIM cards, which detects any changes in the (U)SIM phonebook and allows to synchronize with the backend server. The state-of-art web portal allows the subscribers to synchronize and manage their contacts and personal data. 

Comprehensive Service Offering
The Subscriber Data Management solution covers several key areas of data sharing, protection and management to ease customer concerns and provide optimized performance and service reliability from the mobile operator.
