Airtel’s fraud detection system blocks scam links in just 100 milliseconds here

Today there is internet in every hand in India. From Whatsapp to Instagram, people check the phone as soon as they wake up and scroll till bedtime. We order food, fill the bill, check the offer … and every screen tap is also inadvertently taking a risk. Because the danger no longer comes from the call, it comes as a link. Nowadays the method of fraud has changed. Earlier people used to call and ask for OTP, now they ask for your trust – in a forward message, in an DM, or in a SMS, in which it is written “Your delivery is stuck, click on this link for more information.” The link looks like a real website. You click and a new script is turned on behind the screen of the phone throughout the second, data theft, banking fraud, or social media hack.

Not scared, because now your network has also become smart

Airtel Recently launched a system that proves to be helpful in stopping the scam. It works by scanning the link by tapping on a fraud link by the user. Yes, you can say that this is an angel for your personal information or bank account. Airtel calls it ‘fraud detection system’, which blocks any fishing or fraud website inside 100 milliseconds, that too without any app, setting or extra step. Yes, even before your eyelid blinks.

There is no need to download any app or any manual setting for this. As soon as you connect to the Airtel network, this feature is automatically turned on.

What is this shield of Airtel?

Most frauds or scam protection tools occur inside the phone, such as antivirus or extension. But Airtel has put this security on the first layer of your phone, which is the network level.

As soon as you click on a suspicious link, Airtel’s dual engine system scans the domain in real time, in which the first engine matches it with a global fraud database and the second engine checks new unknown links in real time from AI. If the danger is found, it is blocked before the site opens and you are shown a warning screen, stating that Airtel has stopped this website for your safety.

So is it really effective? Statistics say here

And it works on only SMS, whatsapp, telegram, facebook, email, browser, every platform. This step of Airtel is not a technological upgrade, but a new definition of digital safety.
