VimpelCom, one of Russia's largest operators, has chosen Syniverse DataNet to secure its network against roaming fraud and meet the GSM Association's (GSMA) new anti-fraud Near Real Time Roaming Data Exchange (NRTRDE) standard. Syniverse also provides all seven national operators in the VimpelCom group with data clearing services. VimpelCom, as the leading operator of the group of national mobile operators in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Georgia and Armenia, will use Syniverse DataNet, a solution developed in compliance with the GSMA's NRTRDE standard, to ensure data records that track subscriber roaming activity are exchanged more rapidly between home and visited operators in order to reduce roaming fraud. VimpelCom has moved forward with anti-fraud action well ahead of the GSMA's October 2008 deadline to for NRTRDE implementation. Syniverse's DataNet solution will allow VimpelCom to drastically reduce the time normally taken using an outmoded High Usage Record (HUR) system to exchange roaming data records with their partners and, therefore, resolve fraudulent activity more rapidly. Such a reduction in time is projected to reduce the incidence of roaming fraud by up to 90 percent.
