The Chairman of the Authority&#8217;s Board of Directors, Omar Al-Omar, emphasized that this initiative reflects the Authority&#8217;s commitment to improving the security and quality of services in the telecommunications sector and reducing the number of electronic fraud operations that target users.<\/p>\n<p>The Authority has directed telecommunications companies to conduct the necessary tests to ensure the readiness of their networks and control the quality of service.
