Mobileum Inc. (“Mobileum”), a leading global provider of analytics and network solutions, and Apate.ai (“Apate”) have announced a partnership that equips communications service providers (CSPs) with advanced AI-powered fraud prevention capabilities designed to detect, disrupt, and investigate scam call operations.

The result is a scalable approach for adding high-fidelity detection, tracking and targeting data to static, crewed and uncrewed platforms without the size, weight and power demands traditionally associated with high-performance electronically scanned array radar.
