US 2025/0039295 A1 · TELECOMMUNICATIONS VALIDATION SYSTEM AND METHOD

Abstract

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a toll-free telecommunications validation system determines a confidence value that an incoming phone call to an enterprises' toll-free number is originating from the station it purports to be by incorporating one or more layers of signals and data in determining said confidence value. The data and signals can include one or more call identifiers and/or toll-free call routing logs, service control point (SCP) signals and data, service data point (SDP) signals and data, dialed number information service (DNIS) signals and data, session initiation protocol (SIP) signals and data, carrier identification code (CIC) signals and data, location routing number (LRN) signals and data, jurisdiction information parameter (JIP) signals and data, charge number (CN) signals and data, billing number (BN) signals and data, and originating carrier information (such as information derived from the ANI).

Claims20

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

receiving, by a computer, a request for a confidence score that an incoming call was spoofed from a remote computing system that received the incoming call, the request comprising one or more call identifiers for the incoming call;
determining, by the computer using the one or more call identifiers for the incoming call included in the request, a log entry exists for a query to a call-routing lookup for a prior call that used the one or more call identifiers;
generating, by the computer, the confidence score that the incoming call was spoofed based on determining that the log entry exists for the query to the call-routing lookup that used the one or more call identifiers;
and
generating, by the computer, a message for display at a user interface of the remote computing system, the message containing the confidence value indicating that the incoming call was spoofed.

A non-transitory computer readable media comprising software executable logic that, when executed by one or more processor, causes the one or more processors to perform:

receiving, by a computer, a request for a confidence score that an incoming call was spoofed from a remote computing system that received the incoming call, the request comprising one or more call identifiers for the incoming call;
determining, by the computer using the one or more call identifiers for the incoming call included in the request, a log entry exists for a query to a call-routing lookup for a prior call that used the one or more call identifiers;
generating, by the computer, the confidence score that the incoming call was spoofed based on determining that the log entry exists for the query to the call-routing lookup that used the one or more call identifiers;
and
generating, by the computer, a message for display at a user interface of the remote computing system, the message containing the confidence value indicating that the incoming call was spoofed.
