Bengaluru, Jun 11 (PTI) Telecom operator Bharti Airtel on Wednesday claimed that it has blocked more than 1.80 lakh malicious links and safeguarded more than 2.3 million users across Karnataka within just 25 days of launching its advanced fraud-detection system in the wake of rising online frauds.

The initiative is being done as part of the nationwide rollout of its AI-powered fraud detection system, it said.

In a statement, Bharti Airtel said, “Automatically enabled for all Airtel mobile and broadband customers, the advanced system scans and filters links across SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram, E-mail and other browsers. It leverages real-time threat intelligence to examine over 1 billion URLs daily and blocks access to harmful sites in under 100 milliseconds.” PTI AMP AMP KH
