Intrado, TSG Global and WMC Global Form Strategic Initiative

Intrado, TSG Global and WMC Global have formed a strategic initiative to address key identity, privacy and security issues in enterprise communications using blockchain or distributed ledger technology (DLT).

The goal of the initiative is to enable enterprises to validate the information associated with their telephone numbers and prevent scammers and spammers from hacking their identity. The three telecom leaders will use the newly developed patented blockchain identity solution TNID (Telephone Number ID) to securely store, share and attest business information linked to a telephone number.

Enterprises and business process outsourcers can use TNID’s “source of truth” record to manage every one of their Toll-Free and local phone numbers, thus enabling them to more easily deliver trusted consensual communications to consumers who have opted in.

By standardizing the identity process, TNID’s private blockchain network will also dramatically reduce telecom fraud and robocalls, which was the main goal of the industry-wide STIR/SHAKEN initiative.

“We are excited to be one of a group of like-minded innovators dedicated to protecting sensitive customer data while enabling enterprises to deliver trusted communications,” said Noah Rafalko, CEO of TSG Global. “With the global reach of Intrado together with WMC Global’s monitoring and security, we are confident we can solve the issues that STIR/SHAKEN only begins to address.”
