Telecom Fraud Management – Fraud Detection Solutions

Telecom fraud has been rapidly growing throughout the industry over recent months and years making the deployment of telecom fraud management systems more important than ever. TransNexus has developed several solutions for telecom fraud management, prevention, and detection. TransNexus fraud detection solutions effectively eliminate the problems of traffic pumping fraud, PBX hacking, revenue sharing fraud, blind transfers, and call forwarding fraud for VoIP providers. The solution is to include smart monitoring features that sense when there is an unusual spike in call traffic to a specific destination. When a suspicious spike occurs, the TransNexus system simply and automatically blacklists the route, ensuring that fraud losses are kept to an absolute minimum without interrupting legitimate calls.
