According to Acision, its Content Control service detects unsolicited spam messages and controls messages received from other providers. By managing both SMPP and SS7 traffic the Acision service controls both network and application based unsolicited messages. Further protection is offered to users through the enablement of ‘third party aliasing’. This feature protects the user’s identity from being captured preventing their number from being used to fraudulently send unsolicited messages.
Eduardo Bueno, vice president of sales and marketing for Latin America at Acision, said: “In addition to offering a service that increases the security of Digitel customers and eliminating spam messages, Acision content control contributes to traffic monitoring. Digitel joins over 20 operators worldwide who are protecting their customers with Acision Content Control.”
Digitel was Venezuela’s first GSM operator and has been offering SMS services since 1999. With the purchase of Acision content control, Digitel is continuing a provider of innovative services to the market. Acision is a messaging company and it claims to be providing communication services for over 300 network operators and service providers globally.
