Infobip Deploys SMS Firewall With Monetization Consultancy Services for Indosat Ooredoo in Indonesia

LONDON and JAKARTA, Indonesia, Feb. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Infobip, a global cloud communication platform company for businesses and a leader in telecom solutions today announced the installation and operational rollout of its award winning sGate SMS firewall with monetization consultancy services at Indosat Ooredoo in Indonesia.

The sGate SMS firewall provides mobile operators with a detailed analysis of inbound SMS messaging traffic, identifying fraudulent activities and preventing spam messages from being delivered to subscribers' devices. Simultaneously, Infobip's monetization experts are working closely with operators to monetize improperly charged messages and turn them into revenue-generating, legitimate traffic.

Infobip was selected by Indosat Ooredoo as the SMS firewall and monetization solutions provider based on Infobip's proven track record for protecting operators' networks and increasing revenue from A2P SMS traffic.

Indosat Ooredoo has a subscriber base of close to 60 million, and a vision to be Indonesia's leading digital telco, with one of its major focus areas in accelerating B2B as a new engine of growth. Indosat's goal to be the "telco you can trust" aligns with Infobip's values, promising a successful partnership.

"Carriers across the industry are working to mitigate the risks of cyberattacks and fraudulent activity so much so that management of this traffic has become a strategic business priority. Our solution combines next generation continuous business and technical support that helps fix deficiencies in messaging operations and optimizes network efficiency leading to increased revenues and better experiences for end users. We look forward to working with Indosat Ooredoo on shaping and supporting best practices in this space," said Infobip founder and CEO Silvio Kutic.
