ASTPP 4 has brought many new add-ons and features. Furthermore, some of the features and add-ons are available for open source and some are available only for enterprise version users. The community is launching new features and add-ons frequently. Recently, the spokesperson of the community announced the launch of Fraud Detection add-on.

The Fraud Detection is an enterprise add-on. It is made available to make sure this smart VoIP software and the business of its users stay well protected from all different types of attacks and malicious activities. This add-on detects fraud activities and hack attacks and take actions in real time to prevent any major losses.

“VoIP businesses are prone to attacks and the most common attacks are related to calling on international numbers or making many calls and similar activities. All these actions create major consequences for businesses as it can result in loss of money, sensitive data, and ultimately, it maligns the brand name and reputation. The Fraud Detection module will help to prevent all this by using the potential of the smart telephony platform. I would say, it is the must have solution for businesses that run wholesale business, retail business, or bulk service providers as the chances of attacks and loss, both are high there”, shared spokesperson of the company.

As per the shared details, the administrator of this smart VoIP software, ASTPP, can make certain configurations in the Fraud Detection module as listed below:

• Whitelisting on the basis of IP address or IP address range
• Blacklisting on the basis of IP address or IP address range
• Setting a maximum call limit for a specific customer
• Setting a maximum call limit for a specific destination
• Setting a maximum daily credit limit
• Setting a maximum daily recharge limit
• Setting a maximum call cost spending limit per account
• And more

In case of violation of the set limit, the ASTPP solution will take necessary actions, which can be one or more of the following:

• Block the user immediately
• Send an SMS or an Email to admin take further actions

The ASTPP 4 also blocks a user if he uses more than a predefined number of wrong login credentials.

As per the shared details, this smart telephony software provides additional settings to override the settings made in the Fraud Detection module to cater to premium and large customers.
