Rosenworcel said that the new task force will lead the agency\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/fcc-wants-to-revamp-data-breach-laws-for-telecom-carriers\/\">recently proposed efforts to modernize its 15-year-old data breach rule<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The task force \u2014 which will be led by Loyaan Egal, the agency\u2019s enforcement chief \u2014 will also coordinate the FCC\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/fcc-sim-swapping-scams-t-mobile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rulemaking efforts aimed at preventing SIM swapping<\/a> and creating standards for carriers to authenticate a customer before transferring a number to a new device or a new carrier. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis kind of fraud demonstrates how powerful these forces are and how privacy is so important for communications and digital age trust,\u201d Rosenworcel said about SIM-swapping, a kind of attack in which cybercriminals use a victim\u2019s personal information to steal their phone number and swap it into a scammer-controlled device.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>During her remarks on Tuesday at the Center for Democracy and Technology, a Washington think tank, Rosenworcel said she has serious concerns about how mobile carriers collect and share users\u2019 private data, such as geolocation data. Queries from the FCC <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/fcc-geolocation-data-verizon-t-mobile\/\">found last year<\/a> that ten of the top 15 mobile carriers in the United States collect geolocation data and provide consumers no way to opt-out.<\/p>\n<p>Rosenworcel said that the agency is carrying out a follow-up investigation about how to address the collection of geolocation data that has now been delegated to the new task force.<\/p>\n<p>Rosenworcel also noted concerns about carriers selling sensitive user data and called on her fellow FCC commissioners <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/document\/fcc-proposes-over-200m-fines-wireless-location-data-violations\">to finalize $200 million in proposed fines <\/a>brought in 2020 against AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon for sharing customer location data without their consent, penalties that won\u2019t come into effect until the agency votes to approve them.<\/p>\n<p>During her speech, Rosenworcel hinted at an upcoming \u201cenforcement action against two companies that have put the security of communications customers at risk.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t say more right now, but I can say this right out of the gate: We are showing that this task force means business,\u201d said Rosenworcel.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\">\n<div
