NGMN's report highlights that agentic AI can enable advanced automation in telco networks but requires stringent governance, security protocols, and interoperability standards, especially for multi-agent systems to be safely deployed in live networks.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Telecom & Connectivity and AI Agents.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Agentic AI in telecom is moving from experiments to network-wide control but only with tight guardrails on identity and governance. You must build or integrate trustworthy agent identity systems before scaling AI automation in live networks.
