The Ministry of Digital Development and the FSB are considering an eSIM platform in case SIM cards are used in Russia, Izvestia reports.
A pilot danger with a public software and hardware complex, to which operators can be connected to check for eSIM, is supposed to be deployed on the territory of the Radio Research Institute (NIIR).
Only domestic equipment and software provide absolute security when collecting on objects of critical confidentiality.

The agency does not specify the timing of the launch of the platform and its functions.
We are talking about software and hardware systems, a hidden certification center and a cryptographic information protection system. Domestic equipment will be tested on the platform (primarily various sensors, meters, tablets, etc.). It has chips built into it, either our eSIMs or foreign ones, which calculate our security read metrics.

Already working eSIMs will not be blocked. The new infrastructure is primarily on new eSIMs. [Известия]
