How do we detect a flash call?

Arelion's flash call detection solution is powered by a machine-based learning engine that analyses over 200 million live call attempts every day. The system ensures 99,995% fraud detection accuracy.

With full visibility of A2P voice traffic, operators can build new monetization models and secure both A2P SMS and A2P Voice revenues.

Arelion flash call detection recognizes and blocks:

  • Zero-duration flash calls
  • Flash call fraud (artificially generated OTP SMSs, converted into flash calls by a fraudulent carrier)
  • Pin-to-Speech (P2S) / text-to-speech

Empowering MNOs with Service Control

After implementing our efficient flash call detection solution, MNOs gain full control of: 

  • Flash Call monetization: MNOs implement a dedicated flash call termination trunk, independent of existing international voice trunks. Billing is carried out on a "per call session/ attempt" basis.
  • Flash Call blocking: Incoming flash calls can be blocked and redirected through alternative authentication channels, such as SMS. This can facilitate an immediate increase in SMS A2P (Application to Person) traffic.

Solution deployment 

Flash call detection can be deployed on-premises or as a cloud-based solution. Integration with any type of network is possible, from legacy TDM based networks to NGN networks, and is available for all types of fixed and mobile systems.

What is A2P messaging?

Application-to-Person (A2P) messaging is one-direction messaging from an application to a person where no reply is expected. The utilization of A2P covers a broad spectrum, including notifications, PIN codes, 2FA (2-Factor Authentication) reminders and critical alerts to name a few.

Securing and monetizing enterprise SMS

If you have downloaded an app, made an online purchase, taken a COVID-19 test, or ordered takeout in the past year, chances are high that you have used A2P (Application-to-Person) Messaging. This is a type of one-directional message generated by an application rather than a person using SMS.
