Skyward SMS Antifraud Successfully Deployed by Major European A2P SMS Provider

Fraud Detection

Skyward, a leading provider of telecom products and services, is pleased to announce the successful implementation of its SMS Antifraud solution by the European branch of a large international telecom operator. This branch specializes in the SMS A2P market, providing SMS services to major enterprise customers, including banks, delivery services, retail businesses, and more.

Skyward SMS Antifraud (SSA) offers real-time verification and blocking of messages with suspicious and malicious content. The solution can identify phishing, gambling, and spam traffic based on message text and metadata of SMS flow. SSA checks each message and calculates the probability of fraud, providing the flexibility to set custom blocking thresholds for specific traffic directions.

Prior to the implementation of SSA by the European SMS A2P provider, several months of testing were conducted to tailor the solution to the client's unique requirements. A thorough analysis of SMS traffic profiles allowed for the flexible adjustment of machine learning algorithms used by SSA to increase fraud detection accuracy. During its operation, the solution has been deployed for traffic from eight countries, including France, Australia, the UK, and Spain. The volume of processed traffic in the past months has more than doubled.

The deployment of the solution has enabled the European SMS A2P provider to achieve four main advantages:

significantly increase traffic integrity, thereby minimizing complaints from partner operators;
protect against fines and potential blocks from mobile network operators (MNOs)
reduce the volume of manual fraud cases processing and blacklist configuration performed by the NOC service
ensure a 100% margin on blocked traffic

We are grateful to the recognized leader in the A2P SMS industry for their trust and choice. Over the past few months of collaboration, we have prepared a solution focused on the client's business challenges and the specifics of their traffic. It is important to note that thanks to the ability to integrate with any SMS platform and powerful machine learning mechanisms, Skyward SMS Antifraud is suitable for any operator to combat fraud and struggle for the integrity of their SMS traffic.
