TLDR: Oculeus AFS has been awarded the 2025 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award by TMC, recognizing its cutting-edge Anti-Fraud System for its significant contributions to combating telecommunications fraud through advanced AI and machine learning technologies.
Shelton, CT – August 18, 2025 – Oculeus AFS, a leader in telecommunications fraud prevention, has been named a recipient of the prestigious 2025 Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award by TMC, a global, integrated media company. This accolade, now in its 27th year, celebrates the pinnacle of innovation in products and services that are actively transforming how the world connects through voice, data, and video.
Oculeus’s award-winning Anti-Fraud System (AFS) is specifically designed to empower telco operators in their fight against a wide array of voice and messaging fraud schemes. These include sophisticated threats such as PBX-hacking, SIP-account hijacking, Wangiri and trap calls, SIM-boxing, national to international bypass fraud, fair-usage abuse, and FAS (Fraudulent Activity Simulation). The system is engineered to detect and mitigate these fraudulent activities in real-time, often within milliseconds to seconds, thereby limiting potential damages to the bare minimum.
A key differentiator of the Oculeus AFS is its comprehensive platform, which incorporates an advanced AI-framework, including machine learning capabilities. This intelligent core enables the system to evaluate traffic streams, perform mediation and rating, and conduct traffic profiling over a thirty-day period, with updates every five to fifteen minutes. The system also features SIP-signaling interfaces (stateful or stateless), switch interfaces, a SIP-redirect server, and robust traffic monitoring tools.
With more than forty customers globally, Oculeus AFS offers remarkable operational autonomy. Fraud teams can define models that allow the system to act with varying degrees of independence, from intended interaction to full system autonomy, where no human intervention is required to combat fraud. The system also integrates seamlessly with the GSMA Call Check API, enhancing security across telecoms networks by enabling operators to cooperate in securing their lines of communication without compromising business-critical data.
