O innovative OSS / BSS solutions for telecommunications service providers and network operators , has announced that the company has won the Fortress Cybersecurity Award for improving threat detection on telecommunications networks with its Oculeus Anti-Fraud System .

The Fortress Cybersecurity Award programme identifies the world ’ s leading cybersecurity companies and products that are keeping electronic data and assets safe from growing threats and exposure to hacking .
The Oculeus Anti-Fraud System improves the fraud prevention practices of telecommunications service providers and network operators by creating an automatic framework to rapidly identify and block threats of telecommunications fraud . While existing practices for telecommunications fraud prevention still rely on time-consuming manual processes and cross department interactions , the Oculeus Anti-Fraud System combines anomaly detection and automated processes to detect and stop fraudulent telecommunications traffic in near-real-time before significant revenue is lost . The system starts by building a baseline profile of expected telecommunications activity and then continuously monitors all telecommunications traffic .
It uses call attempt evaluations , call records and commercial data to check for traffic anomalies and patterns that are typical of fraud .
The Oculeus Anti-Fraud System improves threat detection on telecommunications networks
In addition to rapid post-call fraud evaluations , the system performs fraud evaluations before the start of a call by working with a SIP redirect server and a pre-call fraud detection engine to evaluate all pre-call attempts and immediately block traffic that is identified as fraudulent . www . intelligentciso . com | Issue 03
