C-DOT’s Indigenous AI-Driven Fraud Detection Solution ‘FraudPro’ among Top Finalists at Prestigious Global Mobile (Glomo) Awards at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2026 in Barcelona, Spain
The Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT), the premier telecom R&D centre of the Government of India, has received global recognition at the Mobile World Congress 2026 (MWC 2026), for its indigenous AI-driven fraud detection solution FraudPro. This solution made it to the top finalists at the prestigious Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards in the category of Best Network Security and Fraud Prevention.
With the rapid expansion of digital connectivity and increasing reliance on mobile-based services, identity-related fraud has emerged as a major challenge for telecom operators and the governments worldwide.
Designed and developed by C-DOT, FraudPro is an advanced AI/ML driven fraud detection platform aimed at securing telecom ecosystems against identity-based fraud. The solution leverages sophisticated Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques for large-scale image deduplication, forged document detection, and re-verification, enabling telecom operators to proactively detect fraudulent mobile connections in the network and prevent misuse of telecom resources. This solution is deployed by Department of Telecommunication in India as part of Digital Intelligence Platform and Sancharsaathi portal https://sancharsaathi.gov.in
The Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) led Global Mobile Awards at MWC are widely regarded as one of the telecom industry’s most prestigious recognitions, celebrating breakthrough technologies and innovations that are transforming the global digital ecosystem engaged in frauds.
Being recognised among the world’s leading innovations at Mobile World Congress, one of the most prominent global platforms for the telecommunications industry, marks a significant milestone for C-DOT and underscores India’s growing role in shaping next-generation telecom technologies. The recognition of FraudPro at MWC 2026 reflects C-DOT’s continued efforts to build secure, resilient, and future-ready indigenous telecom networks, while contributing to the vision of secure digital infrastructure and trusted connectivity for the evolving telecom landscape. This global acknowledgement also serves as an encouraging milestone for India’s indigenous telecom innovation ecosystem under the vision of AtmaNirbhar Bharat, highlighting the country’s capability to develop advanced cyber security and fraud prevention solutions for large-scale digital networks.
