Azure Solutions Wins Fraud Detection Contract with Ukrainian Mobile Operator Astelit
Azure Solutions, a revenue assurance company, today announced that Ukrainian mobile operator Astelit is deploying Azure Fraud Control System version 3.5 (AFCS v3.5) to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of its anti-fraud system.
Oguz Memiguven, chief technical officer at Astelit said: “Astelit is always moving forward, aiming to deliver the best technology and service. It was really important for us to find a solution that could both integrate with existing legacy systems, and new data or capabilities as they are introduced. Azure offered this in a package that could be easily configured to suit our needs, meaning that we can now run a stronger and more efficient fraud-detection team.”
As a rapidly growing digital communications technology and service provider, Astelit needed a cost-effective and forward-looking way of detecting and preventing fraud. Azure’s flexible and scalable solution will help Astelit easily configure, control and define fraud detection rules, and leverages comprehensive case management workflow and report generation to make its fraud-detection teams even more efficient. AFCS v3.5 will fully integrate with new data that is added to the system, and help to detect fraud as new products are introduced.
Launched in March 2006, AFCS v3.5 is the latest version of Azure’s fraud-detection system and bureau service, developed to help combat the annual $37.9 billion problem of telecoms fraud worldwide. AFCS v3.5 uses intelligent and unique detection technology, and accepts multiple data feeds to allow all types of product or service to be monitored (fixed, mobile, interconnect, IP etc.).
Norbert Holst, sales director, Central and Eastern Europe at Azure Solutions said: “Working with Astelit gives Azure a great opportunity to expand its presence in Eastern Europe, and we are delighted to be working with a such a professional team.”
Azure recently announced that it is to merge with Subex Systems to create Subex Azure Limited, the world’s largest vendor in the telecoms revenue maximisation market. The merger is due to be completed in June 2006.
