  • AUTOMATICALLY DETECTING SIM-BREACH EVENTS
    Publication number: 20260019812
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and responding to potential SIM-security breach events are described herein. A security application executing on a device may determine if the device has the ability to place calls by querying a baseband processor of the device. When the device does not have the ability to place calls, the application may then determine if an available expected mobile network is accessible (by querying the baseband processor again, in some embodiments). In response to a determination that the available expected mobile network is accessible, an interface is provided to a user asking if the user is deactivating the SIM of the device for a legitimate reason. When an input is not received confirming that the user is deactivating the SIM for a legitimate reason, the security application automatically transmits a notification that a potential SIM-security breach event has occurred.
