Trusted communications leader, iconectiv,
examines interconnection challenges and protects networks from
being misused and abused by fraudsters
iconectiv:
Why:
In Argentina, most consumers rely on
mobile and internet communications to stay connected. In fact,
according to a recent report, at the start of 2024, almost everyone
in Argentina had at least one active cellular mobile connection
(representing a penetration rate of 135%), while much of the
country (more than 88%) had internet access. This level of
mobility, coupled with businesses’ reliance on phone calls to reach
their customers and vice versa, underpin the importance of
maintaining both efficiencies and trust in these vital
communications channels.
What:
This topic, as well as other timely
industry-related discussions, will be the focus of two sessions
presented by iconectiv during CABASE Internet Day in Buenos Aires,
Argentina:
- Common Language for seamless interconnection and better
visibility into network assets for planning and service
activation.
- Cross Border Call Authentication for helping to stem the tide
of misuse and abuse that is permeating communication networks
globally and causing undue harm, inconvenience and having a
negative financial impact on legitimate businesses and unsuspecting
individuals.
Who:
During the Common Language session,
iconectiv will examine how leveraging a standard language for how
communications service providers (from wireless to broadband) refer
to their network equipment and assets can aid them with their
network planning and expansion efforts to connect underserved areas
and ensure connectivity for all Argentinians while also helping
provide efficiencies for the roll-out of next-generation
technologies such as 5G.
In the Cross Border Call Authentication
session, iconectiv will explore the latest treatment of
international calling and what needs to be done to ensure that
fraudsters are blocked from using the networks as their pathway to
defraud while helping ensure that consumers have a high level of
confidence when choosing to answer a call. iconectiv will address a
variety of topics, such as why legitimate international calls are
being blocked or marked as suspicious, the state of play for
implementing call authentication standards in Argentina and
internationally, the best solutions for addressing the current
cross border authentication issue and who needs to be involved.
