Telesign’s Intelligence evaluates a phone number using an extensive set of static and behavioral phone number attributes to help evaluate the risk in a phone number’s interactions. Through a vast database of phone numbers associated with fraudulent activities, Telesign delivers a real-time, in the moment recommendation of the risk of a phone number, which safeguards against known fraud attempts.
