The GSMA GLOMO Awards recognize the most innovative and impactful technology solutions across the global mobile ecosystem. The Best Network Security & Fraud Prevention category honors technologies that protect mobile networks, reduce fraud exposure, and strengthen operator security infrastructure.
NetSTAR was shortlisted for its inCompass® platform, an OEM-grade URL and IP Address categorization and filtering technology, and threat intelligence engine, deployed at scale by mobile operators, security vendors, and network providers worldwide. NetSTAR inCompass enables real-time blocking of phishing, malware, smishing, and fraud-related infrastructure — including in encrypted traffic environments — while delivering granular policy control at domain, path, and page levels.
Backed by intelligence derived from over 1.8 billion global endpoints and more than 48 billion categorized URLs and domains, NetSTAR technology powers network protection, compliance enforcement, and fraud prevention across both mobile and fixed carrier environments.
“Being shortlisted by the GSMA validates the role NetSTAR plays as foundational intelligence infrastructure within the global mobile ecosystem,” said Daniel Ashby, COO of NetSTAR. “As encrypted traffic and fraud sophistication continue to increase, operators require precise, scalable intelligence to protect subscribers and enterprise customers. We are honored to be recognized among the industry’s leading security innovators.”
