In today's mobile networks, SMS spam and fraud protection is getting

increasingly difficult as more uncontrolled entities may gain access to SS7

backbone and SMS spoofing may enable spammers to masquerade

fraudulent SMS as originating from roaming partner network.

SMS spam is an annoyance to the customer, leads to complaints and churn,

cause revenue loss and network inefficiency. SMS fraud is a direct attack

against the revenues of the Mobile Network Operators.

MCTEL SMS Firewall uses innovative mechanisms to filter incoming SMS,

check they originate from roaming partners, filter them according to their

content and other criteria, generate alarms when needed, and block

unwanted or illegal traffic.

Advanced message content control mechanisms allow to detect SMS

flooding and any unwanted content.

MCTEL SMS Firewall can be installed on existing network (connected to

the current SMS Center) and can be integrated seamlessly with SMS Control

(Parental Control and Smart Messaging) and MCTEL FDA (Direct Messaging).
