Sim Swapping is an important topic in cybersecurity and is becoming an increasing threat to businesses and individuals online. In this article, we will explain what Sim Swapping is, how it can affect online security and how Ironchip can help protect your customers from this threat.

What is Sim Swapping?

Sim Swapping, also known as SIM card swapping, is a type of phone fraud that involves the transfer of information from one SIM card to another without the knowledge or consent of the original owner. The process is relatively simple, and hackers can gain access to the information on a SIM card through the use of social engineering techniques, such as phishing or spoofing.

Once a hacker has access to a card's information, they can use it to take control of an online account, including social networking accounts, email accounts and bank accounts. 

When a hacker takes control of an account, they can steal personal and financial information, make unauthorized purchases and commit other criminal acts. In addition, the process of recovering an account after Sim Swapping can be complicated and time-consuming, which can result in significant disruption to personal and professional life.
