Time: 2pm ET / 1pm CT / 11am PT
Telecom leaders are moving toward the next evolution of network intelligence: AI-native telcos that are self-managing, self-optimizing, and self-healing. Achieving this vision requires more than AI. It demands a unified, secure data foundation.
In this webinar, experts from Ericsson, Snowflake, and TrustLogix explore how telecom providers can build secure, scalable data environments that enable autonomous operations and predictive insights. Attendees will learn how the Snowflake Data Cloud, combined with the TrustLogix Data Security Platform, powers a Federated Data Cloud with dynamic, intent-based authorization and automated enforcement of least-privileged access for AI-driven systems.
We’ll cover:
- How telcos are planning to use policy-based access controls to safely scale AI and automation
- How to secure AI agent frameworks and maintain compliance during closed-loop operations
- Real-world examples of global telecoms reducing risk and accelerating data product rollout by 50%
Join us to see how leading telcos are turning secure data into a competitive advantage and building the foundation for autonomous, AI-driven networks.
