IPification and stc Kuwait have partnered to bring seamless mobile authentication to Kuwait. IPification is the leading global provider of mobile network-based authentication and fraud prevention solutions, while stc Kuwait is one of the leading mobile network operators in the MENA region serving over 2.3 million subscribers in Kuwait. stc Kuwait has already integrated the mobile authentication solution for its digital services.
Since 2008, stc Kuwait has offered the most advanced telecom services to users in Kuwait. Devoted to reinventing customer experience at a world-class level, the company has now integrated IPification’s GMID platform which helped provide a variety of valuable network signals for stc Kuwait’s digital services. In turn, stc Kuwait has increased cybersecurity and streamlined the user experience simultaneously.
IPification and its comprehensive, telco-oriented GMID platform have evolved over the years driven by the latest industry trends, including the current focus on Open Gateway/CAMARA standards. Its Phone Number Verification flagship solution was designed to solve today’s most pressing authentication problems by offering both bank-grade security and a frictionless UX.
To verify a user’s identity, IPification generates a unique MobileID key comprised of phone number, SIM card, and device parameters, thus serving as possession factor verification of three elements through one API call. With one, or even zero clicks by the user, the process is finished within milliseconds, and without ever sending any sensitive data over the network.
“We consistently strive to elevate the user experience for our diverse customer base by integrating the latest technology to deliver seamless, secure and innovative solutions. Through this partnership with IPification, we aim to enhance our digital solutions with cutting-edge mobile authentication technology to ensure an exceptional experience with the highest standards in cybersecurity. This collaboration aligns with our strategic approach to enabling digital transformation in Kuwait, and strengthening our position as a telecom pioneer in the local and regional markets.” — Engineer Fahad Al Ali, Chief Technology Officer of stc Kuwait.
With the IPification GMiD Platform now integrated into the stc Kuwait network, stc Kuwait has enabled advanced mobile security features for its apps and services, related to Number Sharing and Roaming Status use cases, in addition to the unique MobileID key that combines Number Verification, SIM Swap, and Device Identifier capabilities.
“I’m really excited to announce our partnership with stc Kuwait, one of the top mobile network operators in the MENA region. This collaboration has been fantastic so far, with over a million transactions already processed for stc Kuwait’s digital services. A huge thanks to the IPification team for their hard work in making this happen, and hats off to stc Kuwait who have proved once again to be the leaders in the digital space, having brought the future of authentication to Kuwait.” — Stefan Kostic, IPification CEO.
