Device Intelligence Report 2023

Report

The rising use of privacy-enhancing technologies, while beneficial for users, is obfuscating devices and posing notable challenges for network service providers. While these providers can still identify and manage devices on their networks using existing techniques, they face difficulties in achieving direct engagement with consumers and optimizing their services.

Despite being able to maintain operations and identify maintenance needs, their capabilities are limited in terms of automation, enhancement, and optimization. Therefore, there is a pressing need for sophisticated, reliable, and innovative methods of device identification that can facilitate better consumer engagement and improve performance.
