Protecting Businesses Against Inflated SMS Traffic

Artificial Inflation of Traffic (AIT) poses a significant threat to enterprises, leading to substantial financial losses amounting to tens of millions of dollars annually. In just a brief six-hour period, victims of AIT can incur costs exceeding $10,000. This pervasive issue does not discriminate – no business is immune to the potential dangers posed by AIT. 

Understanding AIT 

AIT involves the generation of One-Time Password (OTP) traffic from legitimate websites and applications, orchestrated to boost revenue for unethical SMS service providers. By partnering with fraudsters, these providers utilize bots to compromise sign-up pages or other OTP-generating activities on your platform, flooding your service with a barrage of OTPs and resulting in a 0% Return on Investment (ROI). 

Implementing security measures on your sign-up page is a crucial step to mitigate the risks associated with AIT. However, fraudsters continually find ways to circumvent these measures, potentially creating additional barriers for legitimate users. CEQUENS recognizes the importance of maintaining a user-friendly interface while addressing these significant risks. The solution? CEQUENS AIT Protection.
