Valid Launches New eSIM Dolution to Answer the Market Demands for Transversal Applications During Mobile World Congress Los Angeles 2021
MADRID, Oct. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Valid, one of the leading players in the eSIM industry, has launched a state of 
art mioSIM eSIM for Consumer 3.0 solution ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3332725-1&h=2167253704&u=https%3A%2F%2Fhubs.la%2FH0ZPZKl0&a=mioSIM+eSIM+for+Consumer+3.0+solution 
) ready to answer the industry demand for secure transversal applications with 
the support of Android Strongbox technology -- an Android Ready SE applet 
responsible for the secure provisioning of Android keys. The first 
implementation of Valid's new eSIM for Consumer solution is going to be on the 
latest STMicroelectronics Secure Element.

After many attempts to transform the SIM card in the platform for services' 
convergence in order to combine payment, identity management and mobile 
applications in one single secure element, the eSIM has finally reached the 
maturity it needs to resolve that long-lasting wish of the mobile world. 

Compliant with GSMA latest standardization, Valid's mioSIM eSIM for Consumer 
3.0 solution is ready to promote the perfect opportunity for transversal 
applications in secure environments. 

Valid's solution, pre-loaded with Android's Strongbox applet, eliminates the 
hassle of implementing a secure element on top of the eSIM, specially during 
the development of the connected devices. In addition to that, the service 
providers can also take benefit of Strongbox applet to protect their 
applications as well. 

By utilizing eSIM transversal applications, combined with Strongbox applet, it 
enables any Android application, using Android Keystore, to securely access the 
keys stored into the eSIM, without any action from the user. They are also 
accessible independently of the connectivity profile, which enables OEMs to 
differentiate their own applications with new security use cases, such as 
strong User identification, Device pairing, VPC access keys, Digital 
currencies, and many more. 

"The eSIM has become the element of convergence for many interested parties due 
to its disruptive ecosystem, maturity, seamless management, and Security Domain 
flexibility. After joining Android Ready SE Alliance, Valid has been able to 
execute its eSIM and secure elements strategy to keep on supporting the 
industry ramp-up phase, opening doors to new high-level protection use cases 
such as Data at Rest, Android keys, ID credentials, Digital keys or even 
Digital currencies, while also offering a trust environment via 
STMicroelectronics' secure element," said Bertrand MOUSSEL, Senior 
Vice-President of Marketing, Product & Strategy at Valid. 

Valid is participating in the Mobile World Congress LA exhibition this week 
showcasing and discussing our new eSIM solution. Visit Booth #1916 on October 
26 - October 28 to meet with a Valid expert or join Valid USA's Senior Vice 
President of Payments/Telecom Sales & Marketing, Alberto Hernandez, live
