(NASHVILLE, TN) November 8, 2019—Equinox Information Systems, a trusted partner to hundreds of telecom companies, reports today that WorldNet has selected and licensed their Protector automated fraud management solution (FMS). Currently processing over 2 billion customer records a day, Equinox has helped companies in all telecom sectors protect and optimize their revenue. WorldNet, the largest locally owned telecommunications provider in Puerto Rico, is deploying the Protector FMS across their Metaswitch network. For maximum protection, WorldNet has also elected to leverage the system’s automatic blocking.
“WorldNet has invested over $40 million constructing our own infrastructure, so we can offer our customers the latest and most innovative telecommunications products and services,” explained Eduardo Santos, who is WorldNet’s Engineering and Planning Director. “Deploying the market-proven fraud management solution from the industry leading provider allows WorldNet PR to safeguard our investment and further supports our commitment to our customers.”
Currently processing hundreds of millions of records per day, Protector is widely recognized as the industry’s most reliable and affordable tool for combatting telecommunications fraud. Immediate alerts about unwanted/ suspicious activity speed response time and mitigate risk. Configurable, dynamic monitoring metrics allow Protector to detect all types of fraud—even the newest fraud schemes—for all customer and call types. Advanced blocking protocols allow Protector to also stop unwanted activity at the source. Protector’s reputation is well earned, having saved carriers hundreds of millions of dollars in fraud losses last year alone.
“Protector’s powerful, adaptive tools quickly identify and stop the kind of attacks that can result in large write-offs and fraud loss. This process not only decreases WorldNet’s risk, it also increases customer satisfaction and employee productivity,” said David West, Executive Vice President of Equinox Information Systems. “Equinox is honored to partner with WorldNet as their FMS supplier.”
