AB 353: Why California’s Low-Income Broadband Mandate Could Break the Industry.

Broadband affordability is a priority—but California’s AB 353 may do more harm than good. AB 353 proposes a state-mandated broadband plan requiring every ISP operating in California—regardless of size, technology, or funding status—to offer 100/20 Mbps service for just $15/month to qualifying low-income households.

This follows a similar law passed in New York, which required large ISPs (20,000+ subscribers) to offer a 25/3 Mbps plan for $15/month. While flawed, New York’s version at least excluded smaller providers. California’s version does not.

Everyone wants to close the digital divide—but one-size-fits-all pricing mandates are not the solution. Especially in rural America, where the economics of broadband are already fragile, AB 353 could collapse the very networks meant to provide access.

If you’re a broadband stakeholder—provider, investor, or policymaker—now is the time to act. Mytra Consulting brings executive-level strategy and insight to help you stay ahead of regulatory risk.

Let’s talk.

Driving Competitive Edge: Why Tier 2 and Tier 3 Leaders Must Embrace Layered Services

Tier 2 and Tier 3 service providers stand at a pivotal moment where fully embracing layered services and digital solutions is not just an option but a necessity for sustainable growth. The challenges of underutilization, strategic misalignment, and cultural barriers are significant but not insurmountable. Immediate Steps for Leadership:

  • Assess Current Use: Evaluate your use of layered services and digital tools. Identify areas where implementation is incomplete or where services are underutilized.

  • Develop a Strategic Plan: Create a comprehensive plan to deploy and integrate these services across your organization. Ensure this plan aligns with your strategic goals and includes clear, measurable objectives.

  • Foster a Culture of Innovation: Encourage a cultural shift that balances caution with innovation. Break down organizational silos and promote cross-departmental collaboration to ensure all teams are working towards the same goals.

  • Enhance Communication and Marketing: Invest in customer communication and marketing efforts to convey the value of advanced services like Corero Network Security's DDoS protection. Use targeted campaigns and data-driven insights to reach and educate your customers.

Develop Strategies for Unlocking Revenue Potential:  Maximizing the Monetization of Layered Services

To fully monetize layered services like Corero Network Security's DDoS protection, providers must adopt a more strategic approach to implementation and marketing:

  • Prioritize Full Implementation: Ensure solutions like Corero Network Security's DDoS protection are fully deployed and integrated into service offerings. Invest in resources and training to build the necessary expertise within the organization.

  • Align Strategy with Execution: Senior leadership must ensure that strategic goals are effectively translated into action, with clear, measurable objectives for deploying and monetizing layered services.

  • Enhance Customer Communication: Focus on clearly communicating the value of advanced security services through targeted marketing campaigns, customer education initiatives, and transparent pricing models.

  • Leverage Analytics: Use data analytics to understand customer needs better, allowing for more targeted and effective marketing of layered services.

The Challenge: Underutilization of Layered Services

One of the primary issues facing these providers is the underutilization of layered services like Corero Network Security's DDoS protection. While these services are critical for maintaining network security and reliability, many providers fail to implement them fully. This partial implementation often results from a lack of resources, insufficient training, or a disconnect between strategic goals and operational execution.

  • Partial Implementation: Providers often deploy solutions like Corero Network Security's DDoS protection only as a basic safeguard, leaving networks vulnerable and limiting the ability to generate additional revenue from offering advanced security services.

  • Missed Revenue Opportunities: Providers miss out on significant revenue potential without fully integrating these services. Customers are increasingly willing to pay for enhanced security, but the opportunity to capitalize on this demand is lost if these services are not adequately marketed or implemented.

  • Operational Inefficiencies: The lack of complete implementation leads to operational inefficiencies, as providers struggle to manage and optimize these services without the necessary expertise or resources. Paying attention to details (mis-spellings), yet missing operational targets.

A Case Study in Missed Opportunities: Corero Network Security's DDoS Protection

Corero Network Security's DDoS protection is a prime example of how incomplete implementation can result in lost revenue opportunities. Despite its potential, many service providers deploy Corero Network Security's DDoS protection only as a basic safeguard, limiting its effectiveness as a premium service and its ability to generate additional revenue. Despite its potential, many service providers do not fully exploit this tool.

  • Incomplete Deployment: Corero Network Security's DDoS protection is often deployed only as a basic safeguard, limiting its revenue-generating potential as a premium service.

  • Lack of Strategic Alignment: There is often a disconnect between providers' strategic goals and the operational execution of these services. Senior leadership may recognize the importance of advanced security features, but without effective implementation, the full potential of Corero Network Security's DDoS protection remains untapped.

  • Customer Communication: Another significant barrier is the lack of effective communication with customers about the value of these services. Many providers fail to adequately market the benefits of DDoS protection, leading to low adoption rates.
