“We are an authoritative source of numbering intelligence, which helps enterprises and others protect their brands, as well as governments protect residents and businesses,” says Michael O 'Brien, who is the Executive Vice President, Parker Business Development at iconectiv. “We have experience in creating, operating, and securing communications infrastructure by managing network and operations interconnect, numbering solutions, fraud prevention solutions, and again, more recent digital identity platforms.”

Recorded last week at MSP EXPO, Michael probes into the challenges and opportunities of keeping things secure as your personal phone number becomes ground zero as the arget of fraudsters. “Fraudsters will exploit anything that they can. They'll go after wherever the money.

iconectiv’s TruOps Common Language platform ensures the flow of consistent and accurate information throughout an organization’s infrastructure by providing a common name for locations, equipment, connections, services, and virtual functions, while also providing a pinpoint view of network sites across business operations, and a way to optimize processes through automating operations. This is especially important as CSPs look to maximize their current investments in network infrastructure as well as to support new technology, such as 5G, and to ensure they are efficiently supporting the enhanced coverage, security and additional capabilities needed to drive new revenue-generating services.
