Aureon announces launch of Caller Identification (ID) Authentication solution, reducing the effects of unlawful robocalling.
DES MOINES, IA March 2, 2021 - Aureon launched its Caller ID Authentication solution on February 1, 2021. Dumont Telephone Company has implemented this Caller ID Authentication solution, which will minimize the effects of robocalling for our customers.
Aureon's Caller ID Authentication meets the standards of the 2019 Traced Act, which was set forth by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and requires voice providers to implement measures to reduce the effects of unlawful robocalling.
"Aureon's Caller ID Authentication solution will undoubtedly bring a positive impact to our valued Independent Telephone Company (ITC) Partners and their communities," said Scott Behn, CEO. "By mitigating the negative effects of scammers and unlawful robocalling, end-users will have a more secure and satisfactory experience with their telephone service provider. And that's something to celebrate."
"Dumont Telephone Company is excited to partner with Aureon to implement this Caller ID Authentication solution," said Roger Kregel, General Manager. "Dumont Telephone Company is committed to delivering an excellent customer experience to the communities we serve, and this Caller ID Authentication technology will minimize the impacts of unwanted robocalling for our customers. The product was implemented in February and it identified and blocked over 600 fraudulent robocalls calls during the first 24 hours of operation."
Aureon's Caller ID Authentication solution provides multiple anti-robocalling measures to ITCs including blacklist/whitelist capabilities, inbound shield, reputation lookup, and analytics to detect potential robocalling activity.
