eSIM Provider Security Audits: How to Evaluate Claims

Evaluating Security Audits

PrivateSims believes in transparency and verifiable security practices.

Types of Audits

• Infrastructure audit: Examines servers, networks, and data centers
• Code audit: Reviews source code for vulnerabilities
• Policy audit: Verifies privacy policies match practices
• Penetration testing: Simulated attacks to breach security
• Compliance audit: Checks adherence to standards like ISO 27001

Red Flags

Be wary of vague security language, no named audit firm, no published results, and limited scope audits. Genuine audits name the firm, specify what was tested, and publish meaningful findings. See our transparency reports guide.

FAQ

Are security audits mandatory?

No. Audits are voluntary, making them a positive indicator of commitment to security.

How often should providers be audited?

Annual audits are the minimum standard. Major changes should trigger additional audits.
