Anam Technologies and HGC announced a partnership to deploy SMS firewall and A2P security management services for the Vietnamobile network. The collaboration aims to boost A2P revenue and improve customer satisfaction through secure messaging infrastructure.
Anam was recently ranked the world’s number one Tier 1 SMS firewall vendor in 2017. The research was conducted by Rocco, an independent consulting firm specialised in mobile network operators (MNOs). The study covered 172 mobile network operators across 141 countries and evaluated 15 industry vendors.
HGC was seeking a strategic partner with complementary A2P security capabilities. Irfan Abubaid, Assistant Vice President of Global Information International Business at HGC, stated: “For mobile network operators (MNOs), the best way to realise A2P opportunities is to combine filtering, reporting and analytics to support insightful business decisions. Anam possesses strong technical capabilities and deep domain knowledge in securing A2P SMS. We believe that with HGC acting as a global A2P hub, our mature international MNO network and in-depth understanding of the A2P aggregator community, we can form a strong partnership with Anam. We look forward to working with mobile operators across Asia and globally, helping them rapidly monetise A2P opportunities and build robust security solutions together with our world-class technology partners.”
Clive Steady, Sales Director of Anam, commented on the partnership announcement: “Being selected by HGC is strong recognition of Anam’s technology and services, and reinforces our position as the market’s top SMS firewall vendor. There is huge potential for monetising SMS traffic quickly, and we are delighted to seize this opportunity alongside the HGC team.”
