SMS Blaster Shield. No more Undetected SMS Blaster Network Attacks
SMS remains a cornerstone of digital communication, offering universal accessibility, instant delivery, and near-immediate open rates. This ubiquity makes it an indispensable tool for both legitimate businesses and, unfortunately, scammers.


How does LATRO’s technology differ from existing fraud detection tools in the market when it comes to identifying and busting SMS Blasters?
LATRO’s solution provides a multi-layered real-time capability of detecting, locating, and stopping SMS Blasters. Traditional fraud management controls such as SMS Firewalls, Content Filters, Charging Systems and Fraud Management Systems are largely ineffective against this type of fraud because it bypasses the operators’ network and does not generate any network event records. By looking for specific anomalies in the signaling of devices when they are attaching to the network, LATRO’s solution is uniquely capable of detecting, locating, and stopping SMS Blasters.
SMS Blaster Shield, part of LATRO’s advanced Bypass Shield solution, is the advanced fraud detection and prevention solution for SMS Blaster Fraud, featuring a multi-layered approach providing real-time detection and management capabilities.
