Solutions
Phishing remains one of the biggest cybersecurity threats in India, affecting millions of users and businesses. With SMS traffic in India reaching 55–60 billion messages annually, an estimated 250–300 million SMS phishing attempts occur each year. Tanla sought a cutting-edge solution to detect and prevent these threats in real time, ensuring secure and reliable communication for Indian users.
Tanla collaborated with Google to implement an end-to-end, real-time anti-phishing system using Google’s Web Risk API. This solution continuously scans and identifies unsafe web links, preventing users from accessing malicious websites. By integrating Google’s robust threat intelligence, Tanla proactively protects against phishing attacks before they can cause harm.
Business Impact
The implementation of Google’s Web Risk API has empowered Tanla to proactively identify and block phishing attempts before they impact users. This has significantly enhanced trust and security in digital communication by providing a robust defense against cyber threats. Additionally, the solution is scalable and operates in real-time, allowing Tanla to adapt swiftly to evolving cybersecurity challenges, ensuring a safer digital experience for users.
