MESSAGING INTELLIGENCE MANAGED SERVICE
Protection from SMS Grey Routes and SIMBanks related revenue leakage combined with managed detection and response services to defend against new phishing, spam and malware campaigns.
Enea’s threat intelligence services identify and mitigate messaging threats by leveraging insights from more than 1 trillion monitored messages each year.
Operators, CPaaS providers, and aggregators use our threat intelligence services with the Adaptive Messaging Firewall to proactively defend against SMS, MMS, and RCS spam and fraud. Our services cover abuse, such as smishing, spoofing, malware distribution, and promotional spam, as well as fraud, including grey routes and outbound SIM box abuse.
Our managed services help operators and CPaaS providers stay ahead of messaging threats and maintain strong spam and revenue protection by continually updating signature-based detection and optimizing enforcement policies based on our global insights.
We identify complex threats as they appear on mobile networks, using artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques. Sender reputation tracking, 7726 reporting service, and automatic discovery of illegitimate campaigns help us track spammers and fraudsters worldwide.
We analyze and aggregate global messaging security threat alerts and suspicious behavior to forensically identify threat actors’ tactics, techniques, and processes. The insights generate new rules and signatures that are immediately implemented in the Adaptive Messaging Firewall.
Mobile network operators benefit from managed security services through reduced fraud, better compliance, and new revenue opportunities from secure A2P traffic. Expert services relieve the need for an in-house security team and leverage global insights.
CPaaS providers and aggregators benefit from managed services for messaging security because threats like smishing, SMS fraud, and spam evolve rapidly, requiring constant updates that in-house teams can’t always handle efficiently. Staying ahead of these threats helps you maintain service integrity and customer trust.
Enea’s messaging intelligence managed service offers customers additional benefits through proactive and preventive configuration of the Adaptive Messaging Firewall before attacks happen. It includes guidance on implementing new SMS traffic and regulations, along with expert analysis of malicious campaigns as they emerge and develop. Enea’s Threat Intelligence Unit collates statistics, suspect traffic profiles, and subscriber reports from around the world and generates new threat signatures that are automatically updated within each network deployment.
Enea’s threat intelligence services actively monitor inbound and on-net traffic to identify SMS spammers and emerging attack patterns before they can impact subscribers at scale. Identifying senders and spam content early is key to protecting subscribers and to ensuring firewalls are up to date. Proactively responding to threats helps ensure the SMS firewall catches spam campaigns targeted at the operator or region.
Grey routes significantly impact operators’ A2P revenue. A small difference in grey route protection efficiency can result in significant recovered revenue. Fraudsters quickly find new ways to avoid termination fees, which is why continuous SMS traffic monitoring is essential. Enea’s revenue protection services analyze traffic, identify senders and sources, and continuously tune the firewall to counter emerging grey traffic flows.
Outbound traffic from SIM boxes can result in interconnect charges from terminating operators or cause conflicts and reputational damage, as no A2P messages are generated for the terminating operator. Without proper control of outbound SIM box traffic, networks can easily become hubs for service gateway fraud. Enea’s threat intelligence services identify outbound grey route traffic and block senders using SIM boxes, stopping fraud and deterring fraudsters from the network.
“It’s clear from the feedback of Mobile Operators that Enea AdaptiveMobile Security is one of the few companies who are admired for really having the edge over their competitors based on their strong reputation for “Technical Expertise”, “Quality of Service” and “Reliability”. A big congratulations goes to the team at Enea Adaptive for reaching Tier One in both SMS and Signalling Firewall research.”
