3G 4G 5G

3G marked a significant advancement in mobile technology , improving upon previous generations by integrating Voice over IP ( VoIP )
4G further advanced mobile technology with increased data speeds and more reliable connections
5G represents ultra-fast internet connectivity with minimal latency and the capability to connect multiple devices simultaneously system helps identify potential inconsistencies or unauthorised device usage ,” he continues .
SIM tenure “ The length of time a SIM card has been active can raise red flags if suspicious activity occurs shortly after a SIM change .”
Real-time data on data usage , call history and location can reveal anomalies , like sudden spikes in data consumption or frequent location changes outside a user ’ s typical area . Yet , AI agents don ’ t just collect data , they analyse it using sophisticated algorithms .
“ AI agents are trained on historical data of known fraudulent activities . This allows them to recognise patterns in network activity that might indicate similar attempts ,” Harsha explains . “ Data analysis goes beyond just identifying anomalies . AI agents consider the context of the data point . For instance , a spike in data usage while travelling might be normal , but the same activity from a stationary device could be suspicious .”
The world of fraud is constantly evolving and Harsha ’ s AI agents are designed to keep pace .
“ By constantly being trained on new data , including past fraudulent activities , AI agents improve their ability to identify new tactics and adapt their detection methods ,” he says . “ By analysing past trends and current network activity , AI agents can predict the likelihood of fraudulent behaviour . This proactive approach allows preventative measures to be taken before fraud attempts occur .”
For Harsha , AI agents are not simply passive observers , they are active guardians of mobile networks .
“ By leveraging data streams , machine learning and real-time analysis , they offer a powerful weapon in the fight against fraud , helping to protect both network operators and their customers .” mobile-magazine . com 77
