This briefing examines the growing gap between modern telecommunications threats and the regulatory frameworks designed to oversee them. It explores infrastructure-layer harm, cross-domain attack activity, AI-driven telecom abuse, and the limitations of current oversight models, arguing for shared intelligence, standardised telemetry, and closer collaboration between regulators and operators to strengthen national communications resilience and accountability.
