Harness network intelligence to identify fraud before it strikes

MNO data provides a layer of truth that exists outside the device. These use cases show how network-level signals can be used to verify identity silently, providing a powerful defense against SIM-based attacks

The passwordless authentication advantage

Integrating and managing passwordless solutions may seem challenging, but inaction comes at a much higher price—fraud. Push USSD authentication over the MNO channel is one way to enable secure, app-free authentication without relying on passwords or physical tokens.

FAQs

Find quick answers to common questions about MNO Authentication.

How does MNO Authentication detect a SIM swap?
By checking carrier signals in real-time. If a SIM card was recently replaced, the risk is flagged before any sensitive data is sent.
Does the user need to provide their phone number every time?
No. The network identifies the device and SIM automatically, allowing for verification without any manual input from the customer.
Does MNO Authentication work for international customers?
Yes. We integrate with a global network of mobile operators to provide consistent verification across different regions and carriers.
