Choosing a Messaging Firewall

The Buyer’s Guide to Messaging Firewalls for CPaaS

If you’re a CPaaS provider on a mission to protect your platform from fraud and spam, comply with operators’ codes of conduct, and capitalise on commercial traffic insights, you might be looking for a messaging firewall vendor to partner with. Our Buyer’s Guide is designed to help you find your perfect match. We have simplified the vendor selection process so you can find a partner that truly understands your unique needs and empowers your business to evolve and grow.  

Stepping up CpaaS Security

What’s Covered in the Buyer’s Guide to Messaging Firewalls for CPaaS?

Step 1

Defining Your Business Needs, to Ensure You Get the Most from Your Messaging Firewall

Before you start shortlisting messaging firewall vendors, you need to know how a messaging firewall can support the goals of different departments in your organization. This guide will help you identify who your internal stakeholders are, and what they need from a messaging firewall 

 

Step 2

Building Your Vendor Shortlist

Vetting the Vendor is just as important as vetting the firewall itself. You’re entering into a long-term partnership with your vendor, so you’ll want to ensure they are trustworthy, stable, and reliable so that your needs continue to be met throughout the partnership. We explain what qualities to look for in a vendor, and what should raise a red flag.   

 

Step 3

Future-Proofing Your Messaging Firewall

A messaging firewall that fails to evolve, fails to protect. Messaging threats are constantly reinventing themselves, and if your messaging firewall can’t keep up, you won’t be able to protect your customers. Find out what questions you should be asking vendors to assess their future readiness.

 

Step 4

Target Features That Work for You

Finally, we analyse messaging firewall functionality, from spam filtering and threat intelligence, to traffic insights and compliance support. You’ll get an overview of messaging firewall features, and how they are used by CPaaS providers to support their business requirements.
