A recent report says that the virtual machines are being used for ransomware.

In such a scenario, the work-from-home contact center is the only viable option. Home office networks are 3.5 times more likely than corporate networks to be infected by malware.

 

Secondly, the telco industry also put in an unprecedented situations. The service providers are hard pressed to address the growing demand for broadband while ensuring, the quality of services is not impacted by deploying OpenRAN, most cost effective and flexible and has found comparatively easier to efficiently handle the sudden surge in traffic and quality of services in these challenging situations.
