IoT SIM Applet For secure End-to-end communication (IoT SAFE) has been developed by the GSM Association to allow for the use of the SIM card as a standardised hardware ‘Root of Trust’. In this report we examine how IoT SAFE works, the benefits that arise from using it, and its limitations. In so doing, we explore what the likely prognosis is for adoption and success of this emerging new technology.
