Frozter scans combine caller ID spoofing with voice cloning technology to impersonate trusted individuals, making traditional warning signs harder to detect.
Google's latest caller verification initiative offers an interesting response to this development.
The solution uses encrypted RCS communications to verify whether a call genuinely comes from the device associated with a trusted contact.
Instead of analyzing the voice itself, the technology validates the underlining device identity.
As synthetic voice becomes more realistic, trusting what we hear becomes more difficult.
It demonstrates that RCS, which is a messaging element, can support identity and trust services beyond its own messaging area, in this case for voice.
The messaging infrastructure becomes part of a broader security system, is made available for other services, like the voice service in this case.
As operators and technology providers look for new ways to combat fraud, the convergence of messaging, identity and security is likely to become more important.
So let's see what other services could be bringing together to create a new layer of security and anti-fraud.
