  2. This blog is incredibly helpful! I’ve set up an Android SMS Gateway, and it’s saving me tons on SMS costs. I’m considering using it for sensitive data, like OTPs for user authentication. For those who’ve used Android SMS Gateways for similar purposes, are there any security measures you recommend? I’d love to ensure the integrity of my messages while maintaining compliance with data security standards.
