Safeguard Against Pervasive Fraud Threats
Wholesale fraud is evolving, with bad actors exploiting multiple fraud types such as Wangiri, IRSF, PBX hacking, and signaling manipulation. These schemes often result in massive financial losses and reputational damage for operators. As regulations tighten, operators are increasingly required to ensure protection against various fraud types, including:
- International Revenue Share Fraud (IRSF): $6.2 billion
- Voice bypass fraud: $5.0 billion
- PBX hacking: $4.2 billion
- Wangiri fraud: $2.0 billion
- Spoofing: $1.6 billion
- Phishing: $1.6 billion
- SIM swap: $1.6 billion1

S1 Platform Drives Advanced Capabilities
While standard rules exist for known fraud types, and custom analytics and rules can easily be created for new fraud scenarios, attackers are always trying to circumvent these rules. BTS’ S1 Platform Analytics, ML, and rules counter these efforts with:
- CLI Refiling with system applying rules per trunk to validate allowed numbers and routes
- Spam/Robocalls analysis and pattern identification for effective call blocking
- Wangiri Fraud call pattern profiling and instant blocking through real-time rules
- IRSF (International Revenue Share Fraud) with a premium-rate number database to block fraudulent calls in real time
- PBX Hacking through call profiling identifying unusual call volumes from specific IPs or user agents (UAs) targeting high-rate destinations.
