Background for this topic.
SMS (Short Message Service) is a text messaging service component of most telephone, Internet, and mobile device systems. It utilizes standardized communication protocols to enable mobile devices to exchange short text messages.
In the context of information security, SMS has become a significant medium for both personal and business communications. As such, it has also become a target for various security threats. Cybercriminals can exploit SMS to conduct phishing attacks, distribute malware, or intercept sensitive information through techniques like SMiShing or SMS spoofing. To protect against these threats, implementing strong security measures, such as two-factor authentication, encrypting messages, and raising awareness about SMS-based scams, is crucial.
