Toll Fraud Manager

Our hosted VoIP security feature, Toll Fraud Manager, detects and prevents fraudulent activity in inbound and outbound call traffic. Hackers can generate significant call traffic in a short time, leading to thousands of dollars in fraudulent charges without any protection. Toll Fraud Manager identifies detectable signatures of such activities and terminates the hacking process immediately while blocking the offending account. This feature protects your business from potential financial losses and ensures the integrity of your communication systems.

The Call Credit Manager limits spending for extensions and sip trunks with credit limits, preventing overage charges. You can set limits for each customer and the system tracks usage in real-time.

The Package and Pooled Minutes Manager feature enables you to set the number of free minutes for your customers. With the advanced Package Minute Manager, you can assign packaged minutes for individual extensions or pooled minutes for the whole company. You can also control the dialing locations, including international destinations and dial codes, to prevent toll or accidental fraud usage.

With the International Rate Manager, you have complete control over the rates and dial codes available to your customers. You can set rates for each country and manage your international accessibility in one central place.

The Call Duration Manager feature enables you to set limits on the length of each call, on each extension, or on the SIP Trunk, thereby ensuring that your credit limits are enforced on each extension and the company credit limit as a whole.

The Call Rate Manager is an essential tool in the fight against Toll Fraud abuse. By setting limits on the number of calls allowed within a specific time frame, you can prevent typical patterns of Toll Fraud and protect your customers from unauthorized call traffic. Combined with other Toll Fraud configuration options, the Call Rate Manager becomes a powerful weapon in your arsenal against fraudulent activity.

The Live Call Manager is a powerful Toll Fraud protection tool that can detect unusual activity in real time during a call. With flexible configuration options, the Live Call Manager can be set up to analyze each call against multiple criteria, making it a highly effective line of defense against Toll Fraud abuse. When suspicious activity is detected, the system can send an alert and/or disable the extension or trunk to prevent further fraud from taking place.

The Inter/Intra State Manager is a feature that enables you to restrict your customers' calls to specific areas, down to a single area or dial code. This functionality not only allows you to tailor a precise package and pooled minute plan but also serves as a control mechanism for limiting calls to particular regions.

The Dial Code Manager enables you to eliminate high-risk countries and dial codes from ever being dialed by your customers, providing an additional layer of protection against fraudulent activities. This advanced tool ensures that your customers' call traffic is limited to the destinations you have authorized, safeguarding their accounts from potential toll or accidental fraud usage.

You can create profiles with Toll Fraud configurations and apply them to different extensions, trunks, PBX services, or just about anything that makes outbound calls.

With Talking Platforms' Toll Fraud protection system, you have the flexibility to create customized profiles with specific configurations and apply them to different extensions, trunks, PBX services, or any other entity that makes outbound calls. This enables you to have precise control over the level of security for each individual or group in your system. With the ability to customize Toll Fraud configurations, you can provide a higher level of security for high-risk entities and a more relaxed level of security for low-risk ones, ensuring that your system is secure without limiting your business needs.

By implementing these managers and security features, you can rest assured that your UCaaS reseller program is protected against potential threats such as fraud, downtime, and outages. Our top priority is to provide you with the necessary tools to protect your customers and their information. We understand the importance of security and take pride in offering advanced security features to prevent any fraudulent activity, secure call traffic, and enforce credit limits. Your success and reputation are our main concern, and we are committed to providing you with the best possible service.
