Overview

To combat the rising threats of vishing (voice phishing), nefarious calls that can lead to harmful and costly data breaches, Mutare developed the Voice Traffic Filter. Mutare’s groundbreaking voice traffic filtering technology is designed to detect and deflect both nuisance and nefarious calls, including robocalls, spammers and vishers, that can lead to costly data breaches. While there are a number of applications on the market designed to block robocalls, no other platform comes close to the Mutare Voice Traffic Filter’s breadth of nuisance and nefarious voice traffic detection and filtering capabilities.

Its five distinct filtering layers, built on a combination of best-in-class databases, organization-specific rules, pattern recognition, machine learning and proprietary AI technology, form a virtual firewall of protection for every endpoint in the organization. The tool includes a STIR/SHAKEN filter, proprietary dynamic database filter, threat radar and voice CAPTCHA verification. It also allows users to create customized rules to leverage blocklists and sets of call handling and filtering actions for inbound and outbound calls. Mutare’s dashboard displays a customized view, including one-click access to most-used services, allowing users to check messages and configure settings for voice message management.

The solution is powerful, yet sensitive enough, to detect and deflect nuisance and nefarious voice calls in all of their various and evolving forms, assuring that only the important calls ring through.

Since inception, the solution has empowered companies across a wide variety of industries, including healthcare, financial services, technology, education and construction, to take control of their voice network traffic to reduce the number of unwanted calls and improve the user experience, saving thousands – if not millions – of dollars in terms of overall productivity each year. With the development of the Voice Traffic Filter, Mutare has undoubtedly set the gold standard for best-in-class breach protection for the voice network.

How we are different

In a world where cybersecurity is a critical business priority, it is beyond belief that one of the main doorways between business and the public has been left unguarded — the voice network. The Mutare Voice Traffic Filter is empowering organizations to protect their most vulnerable endpoint, their voice network, from harmful vishing attacks, which have grown 550% in the last year. This solution purifies voice network traffic by removing unwanted calls at the network edge. It also gives visibility into the traffic traversing their network, providing metrics to understand the true scope, scale and impact of unwanted traffic.


Unlike other robocall-blocking tools, the Mutare Voice Traffic Filter acts as a firewall, leveraging five layers of protection to diminish the risk of data breaches: 1) STIR/SHAKEN filter - includes the integration and analysis of data provided by STIR/SHAKEN call attestation protocols. 2) Proprietary dynamic database filter - taps into worldwide resources dedicated to tracking and verifying tens of millions of numbers related to nuisance/nefarious call activity and then assures those calls never make it to an organization’s network. 3) Threat radar - uses a combination of analytic processes, machine learning and AI, consists of three call surge detection systems to recognize call patterns consistent with spam and spoofing. 4) Voice CAPTCHA Verification - prompts flagged callers to input a random set of digits before passing the call through, separating bots from humans. 5) Custom Rules - allows users to create rules to leverage blocklists and call handling/filtering actions.


Since inception, the Mutare Voice Traffic Filter has empowered enterprises across multiple industries, including healthcare, financial services, technology, education and construction, to take control of their voice network traffic, significantly reducing the number of unwanted calls and saving thousands – if not millions – of dollars in terms of overall productivity each year.
