How do carriers stop SIM swap and port-out fraud?

SIM swap and port-out fraud gets through when a change is approved on a phone call with questions a fraudster can answer, and each channel applies different checks. Callvu runs every SIM change and port-out through secure authentication before it executes, from any door, notifies the customer on the contact on file, requires a step-up when the risk is high, and records every check in the Audit Trace.

The problem today

Why fraud gets through

Today, without Callvu

The store, the app and the contact center each verify differently. A knowledge question on a call is not authentication. Port-out requests from a new carrier can be released before the customer knows. And when something goes wrong, nothing proves which checks actually ran.

How it works

How Callvu runs a SIM change or port-outFive moves, one process.

  1. One governed request from every door

    Store, app, call center and agent-assisted requests start the same process.

  2. Authentication before anything runs

    The customer authenticates on a secure link, and the port-out PIN is verified.

  3. Notification on file

    The customer is notified on the contact already on the account.

  4. Step-up or block on risk

    Six evaluators assess the request; if a check fails, the change is blocked and the case goes to a person.

  5. Written to the BSS

    The approved change lands in the BSS, with the record of every check.

Runtime enforcement

Compliance enforced while the work runsOn every step, every time.

The FCC SIM swap and port-out rules and CPNI authentication are enforced on every request, while it runs. A step that fails a control does not run, and every run produces a Decision Trace and an Audit Trace.

Proof

AT&T runs close to 100 processes on Callvu, including SIM changes, port-outs, account takeover and activations.

AT&T Business deployed a secure payment workflow to 55,000 agents in 5 weeks.
