SIM & SIM Cloning

Subscriber Identity Module:
Integrated circuit that securely stores the international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) number and its related key

SIM Cloning:
Allows two phones to utilize the same service and allows an attacker to gain access to the phone’s data
SIM v1 cards were easy to clone but newer SIM v2 cards are much harder
Be careful with where you post phone numbers
