Globe Teleservices Partners with Maxis
Under this initiative, Maxis and GTS will define and enforce firewall policies for international messaging and voice traffic terminating on the Maxis network. Powered by advanced AI and machine learning (ML) that leverages aggregated global traffic, GTS’s Armour firewall provides rapid fraud mitigation with 24/7 monitoring and continual testing. It is designed to block spam and international message bypass attempts coming from unofficial channels (grey routes) and large-scale fraudulent operations like SIM farms. The result is stronger network protection and uninterrupted communication for Maxis users.
Ashutosh Agrawal, Group Chief Executive Officer, Globe Teleservices, said: “We are proud to work with Maxis to safeguard the messaging and voice channels at scale. Our AI–enabled Armour firewall combines intelligent threat detection with global delivery expertise to protect networks, enhancing customer experience and value that is often lost to fraud and bypass.”
Prateek Pashine, Chief Enterprise Business Officer of Maxis, said, “Customer trust and experience are central to Maxis. This partnership with GTS reinforces our international message and voice defences, deploying AI-powered controls and continuous monitoring to ensure that essential messages reach subscribers quickly and securely. This provides businesses with stronger delivery assurance and our mobile users a safer experience, all on our fast, reliable, and secure network.”
Through this partnership, Maxis and GTS are reinforcing the foundations of a safer, higher–quality connectivity and digital ecosystem in Malaysia that supports innovation. This is in line with Malaysia’s focus on cybersecurity and becoming an AI nation, key priorities outlined in the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP).
