Why Is Our Identity Suite an Award-Winning Solution?
Redefining Digital Authentication
As digital interactions increase exponentially, securing user identity is a business imperative and a real competitive differentiator. Yet, traditional authentication methods—passwords and one-time passwords (OTPs)—are increasingly vulnerable to SIM swap fraud, deepfake manipulation, and interception. These weaknesses expose businesses and consumers alike to rising security threats.
BTS has tackled this challenge head-on. Luis Benavente, Chief Technology Officer at BTS, explains what sets the BTS Identity Suite apart, being named Best Innovation in Authentication at the 2025 MEFFYS Awards.
A New Standard in Authentication
The BTS Identity Suite integrates multiple authentication technologies to deliver secure, frictionless, and scalable identity verification. At its core, the suite leverages telecom infrastructure to create a frictionless authentication experience, eliminating many of the vulnerabilities associated with legacy methods.
One of its key components, Silent SMS Authentication, verifies device authenticity through mobile network signaling—without requiring active user input. Unlike traditional OTPs, which are susceptible to interception, Silent SMS operates invisibly in the background, making it exponentially harder for fraudsters to exploit.
Alongside Silent SMS, the suite incorporates:
- Mobile ID, which harnesses real-time mobile network data to detect fraud, strengthen KYC compliance, and refine risk assessment.
- AI-driven Voice Biometrics, which authenticates users based on unique vocal characteristics, providing a defense against deepfake attacks while enhancing accessibility.
Key Advantages:
- Enhanced security that prevents SIM swap fraud and OTP interception by leveraging direct telco network authentication
- Frictionless experience that reduces verification steps, minimizing user abandonment rates
- Cost efficiency that lowers SMS delivery costs while maintaining robust security
- Regulatory compliance that ensures adherence to global authentication standards
Each of these technologies can function independently or be combined for a layered, flexible approach to identity verification that adapts to evolving security needs.
Driving The Next Generation of Authentication
The BTS Identity Suite successfully combines security technologies with scalability and usability, with technology built to:
- Deploy global VoIP and telco-integrated security solutions.
- Merge AI-driven Voice Biometrics, Mobile ID, and Silent SMS Authentication.
- Provide a single API for scalable, telco-grade authentication.
This recognition reinforces our vision for a digital identity that is both secure and effortless. We are grateful for the support of our partners and industry peers, and we remain committed to advancing authentication technology for a more trusted digital world.
