The government has made great preparations to give relief to mobile users from fake messages. The Union Home Ministry has asked telecom companies Airtel, Jio, Vodafone-Idea and BSNL to implement indigenous spam blocking solution on a trial basis to deal with spam messages. The review meeting for this trial will take place next month i.e. February. The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has also sought feedback from telecom operators for this review meeting. The meeting will include all telecom operators as well as Cybercrime Coordination Center and I4C officials.

This indigenous spam blocking solution of telecommunications Consultants India Limited (TCIL), a Delhi -based government -owned company, will block the fake messages coming on the number of mobile users at the network level itself. TCIL has prepared an indigenous SMS transparency solution to block spam messages. TCIL is ready to offer this tool to all telecom operators without any expenses.

How does it work?

The TCIL official has confirmed that this tool is fully designed in India. For this, indigenous blockchain solution and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been used. This technology blocks the URL of spam messages coming to the user’s number at the network level, then it is verified and sent to the message content users.

The Delhi-based company launched this technology as a proof-off-concept (POC) on MTNL network. It was brought for spam voice and data services in Live Telecom Environment. In the last few months, telecom operators have worked extensively to curb spam calls and messages.

The Department of Telecommunications and the regulator have also instructed telecom operators to bring DLI systems to blacklist such fake calls at network level. If it proves effective in indigenous technology trial, then it will help in blocking the fake messages coming on the number of users and can be completely curbed on cyber crimes.
