By using Enea voice firewall to guard against unwanted robocalls and scam calls, Telecom Egypt has reduced spoof calls on the network by over 90% revealed Enea in its official release.
Telecom Egypt has implemented Enea voice firewall, a state-of-the-art system that uses a zero-trust methodology, to safeguard its subscribers.
The Enea voice firewall reliably identifies and blocks any fake calls entering the network, guaranteeing that customers only get real calls and stopping frauds before they can reach prospective victims.
Highlights from Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA) Report
Phone calls are the primary medium via which scam attempts are made globally, according to a research from the Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA). This alarming information highlights the significance of effective telecom security measures.
Similar to several other nations, Egypt is also plagued by voice call frauds, in which the caller’s identity is misrepresented to subscribers using spoofing. When a subscriber receives a call and the number shown is different from the number being called, this is known as caller ID spoofing.
Using this technique, con artists conceal their identity while fooling subscribers into thinking the call is authentic. It is frequently used to pose as banks or law enforcement, which helps to expedite the first stages of financial fraud or the theft of personal information.
Mohamed Al Fowey, Vice President, Chief Technology Officer at Telecom Egypt said: “Protecting our subscribers is a strategic priority. Improving end-user security to mitigate fraud and abuse in our network adds value to all our users. Enea is instrumental in our work to secure our network against voice call threats such as caller ID spoofing.”
“From the global threat intelligence we collect and analyze, we see an increase in caller ID spoofing worldwide, impacting millions of subscribers and businesses every year and eroding trust in communication systems. By taking a proactive approach to network security, Telecom Egypt shows strong security leadership driven by its commitment to protecting subscribers from harm”, said John Hughes, SVP and Head of Network Security Business Group at Enea.
