<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>NEW DELHI: Sharing the source code<\/a> -- a company's intellectual property --- to third-party laboratories by original telecom equipment makers would increase the security risk, and a mandatory adherence to security conditions in the licensing framework would not require it either, a telecom lobby group said.

\"Source code is an intellectual property of a vendor and is most secured. Sharing it with third-party labs increases the risk of vulnerabilities,\" the Cellular Operators Association of India (
COAI<\/a>) director-general SP Kochhar<\/a> told ETTelecom.

The Delhi-based group represents
Reliance Jio<\/a>, Bharti Airtel<\/a> and Vodafone Idea<\/a> as well as multinational vendors such as Swedish Ericsson, Finnish Nokia, and Chinese Huawei and ZTE.

Gear makers are, however, averse to India's move seeking source code citing its confediantiality and commercial value. But, the government has further asked to share such security compliance-related information to external or private sector labs which the vendors fear may infringe their copyrights.

\"Since the
industry<\/a> is already required to comply with all security needs as per the license conditions and no equipment can be brought to the country without fulfilling the security requirements, there is no need to share the source code with any third party,\" Kochhar added.

Earlier this year, the telco body told the department that since the source code constitutes commercially valuable, confidential and sensitive information, its submission for security testing was not necessary to address security requirement due frequent software delivery on networks and mobile devices.

In a two-page letter to the department, Stockholm-based Ericsson's Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Erik Ekudden while opposing the move said that a \"telecom network can be compromised\" through weaknesses in deployment or configuration and operations, which software-related tests are not aimed to address.

Ericsson's executive further said that the outcome of source code review would be \"questionable\" and it was virtually not possible to bring out the software free from known vulnerabilities.

Telecom service operators and their technology partners are already at odds with the department's proposed move as a part of security compliance, and said that they already adhere to standards practice and regulatory compliances worldwide including the London-based GSMA Network Equipment Security Assurance Scheme (NESAS).

India's demand of souce code comes from the security assurance standards proposed by Bangaluru-based National Centre for Communications Security (NCCS).

Since 2019, the industry is in discussions with the department over the Indian Telecom Security Assurance Requirements (ITSAR).
