Saudi Telecom Selects Narus for Real-time VoIP Detection
Premier Middle East Carrier Chooses Narus’ IP Platform to Manage and Protect Network Revenue
Mountain View, Calif., April 18, 2005-Narus, Inc., the world’s leading carrier-class IP Platform provider today announced that it was selected by Saudi Telecom, the preeminent telecommunications provider in the region, to provide Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) detection services. By employing Narus’ VoIP detection application,Saudi Telecom has recovered revenue that would otherwise be lost through unregulated VoIP traffic.
The Narus IP Platform captures and analyzes all VoIP traffic in the Saudi Telecom network; the VoIP detection application identifies and blocks traffic destined for unregistered international VoIP gateways thus enforcing that traffic must be directed through regulated, tariffed gateways. Narus is the leading choice for managing IP services in the Middle East largely because of its ability to successfully address critical business issues like VoIP detection in real-time. Narus’ Partner, Giza Systems, deployed and configured the Narus IP Platform for VoIP detection at Saudi Telecom.
“We are pleased that Saudi Telecom has selected Narus' IP Platform and its VoIP detection application to provide real-time information in order to better manage and protect its corporate network,” said Greg Oslan, president and CEO of Narus, Inc. “The Narus IP Platform provides complete analysis of both summary and detailed content data simultaneously so that Saudi Telecom has a complete view of its network in real-time and can make immediate business decisions.”
In choosing Narus’ Carrier-Class IP Platform, Saudi Telecom not only receives the benefit of capturing and analyzing VoIP traffic, but also has the opportunity to extend the already deployed infrastructure to new applications for infrastructure protection, IP billing mediation, traffic analysis, customer analysis, and lawful intercept.
