Are we surprised that Enea won the MEFFY award for best anti-fraud solution this year? Not really, because we understand the importance of our Restricted Image Detection for the A2P messaging industry as it adopts RCS and richer messaging. Still, the other shortlisted submissions were also strong contenders, so we couldn’t be sure.

Nima Golchini (Enea) receives the MEFFY for best antifraud solution 2026

We see this peer-voted recognition as strong validation from CPaaS providers, operators, and other industry stakeholders, especially after recently winning Juniper Research’s Future Digital Awards for the same technology. These consecutive wins confirm the solution’s vital role in the A2P messaging industry.

If you missed what Restricted Image Detection does, it is an AI-powered tool that identifies SHAFT images in MMS and RCS messages, enabling non-compliant messages to be blocked.

Why does this matter? Simply put, we need to rebuild trust in A2P messaging so brands can continue reaching consumers through a trusted premium channel. Non-compliant images quickly erode trust because they can be highly explicit. As the industry adopts RCS for business, image content becomes increasingly important in business messaging, and traditional text-based controls are no longer enough.

With Restricted Image Detection, you can:

• Enforce compliance and best sending practices by blocking SHAFT content
• Protect privacy, since AI is used to understand image content
• Improve employee welfare, as no employees need to review potentially disturbing images
