Telecom Lead Asia: Comviva, a Tech Mahindra group company, has selected AdaptiveMobile, mobile security solutions provider, to offer network-based web and message content filtering solution to telecom operators.
Mobile service providers will benefit as the collaboration will help operators to leverage monitoring and advanced security techniques to protect their network, subscribers and enterprise customers against the growing threat of mobile abuse.
AdaptiveMobile’s content filtering techniques manage unwanted messages and telecom operators will have the most comprehensive solution for identifying and preventing fraudulent SMS/MMS and spam, Comviva said in a statement.
“With the ever increasing spam messages from unregistered telemarketers, mobile users are tired of unsolicited/pesky text messages. Therefore operators need to continue to focus on keeping the SMS channel clean to protect users from unwanted messages. With this collaboration Comviva will integrate AdaptiveMobile’s message content filtering solution with its SMS platform and web content filtering solution with its Mobile Data platform,” said Manoranjan Mohapatra, CEO, Comviva.
Brian Collins, CEO, AdaptiveMobile, said: “Text messaging, the most widely used mobile data service today is under attack with SMS spam, spoofing and other SMS-related scams and network congestion has become a major concern for service providers. We trust this integrated solution will help them address their network security problem and help them grow their revenues.”
