Aduna Achieves Significant Milestone as a Key Provider of U.S. Network APIs
Aduna has recently reached a pivotal milestone in its quest to simplify and enhance access to network intelligence across the U.S. The company, a global aggregator of standardized network APIs, has secured agreements with leading equity partners including prominent carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon. This achievement positions Aduna as the only enterprise offering comprehensive, CAMARA-compliant network API services throughout the U.S. market. Enterprises and developers can now connect to over 300 million subscribers across these three major providers through a single, centralized platform. This innovation not only streamlines the integration process but also serves as a significant step towards enabling businesses to leverage powerful carrier-grade network capabilities. These include essential functionalities for authentication, security, and real-time data insights.
Anthony Bartolo, the CEO of Aduna, remarked, "This unification of the three principal carriers under a single API framework is monumental, not only for our company but for the mobile ecosystem as a whole. By minimizing fragmentation, we empower enterprises to innovate at an accelerated pace, integrate effortlessly, and deploy reliable network intelligence on an unprecedented scale." Through its aggregation model, each partner—AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon—is playing a vital role in curbing integration complexity and hastening the rollout of high-value solutions that depend on secure, verified network data.
The first set of APIs made available under this initiative will include services like Number Verification and SIM Swap Detection, which are designed to fortify customer authentication and guard against identity theft and mobile fraud. The Number Verification API allows developers to verify customers without needing SMS messages, thereby avoiding potential interception risks. Similarly, the SIM Swap Detection API can signal changes in a customer's SIM card, helping identify potential account takeover fraud.
Aduna, alongside its carrier partners, is ambitiously planning to expand its API portfolio to incorporate further capabilities aimed at enhancing fraud prevention, authentication measures, and digital trust across diverse sectors such as finance, e-commerce, and digital services. This monumental achievement solidifies Aduna’s status as a frontrunner in the space of standardized network API aggregation, further propelling innovation at the convergence of connectivity and security. As the importance of leveraging network APIs continues to rise, especially in the face of increasing threats to biometric and password-based authentication systems, businesses keen on integrating APIs into their security frameworks are encouraged to engage with Aduna for more insights.
Statements from the partners highlight the profound impact of this collaboration:
AT&T's Shawn Hakl emphasized, “As businesses increasingly rely on software to differentiate and scale, the role of the network is evolving from infrastructure to enabler. Our collaboration with Aduna reimagines the network as a developer-centric platform that accelerates innovation and simplifies complexity.”
T-Mobile’s Dirk Mosa reiterated this sentiment by stating, “Network APIs like SIM Swap Detection are transforming how businesses secure customer interactions at scale. Protecting identity with carrier-verified intelligence is now essential.”
Verizon’s Scott Lawrence added, “Aduna’s aggregation of standardized, CAMARA-compliant network APIs provides developers with a single integration point for carrier-grade security features, essential for protecting against the rising threat of digital fraud.”
Aduna operates as a landmark association of some of the world's leading telecom operators along with Ericsson, dedicated to empowering developers globally to harness network potential through a unified API approach. Its esteemed partners include AT&T, Bharti Airtel, Deutsche Telekom, KDDI, Orange, Reliance Jio, Singtel, Telefonica, Telstra, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Vodafone, with collaborative platforms such as Google Cloud, Infobip, Sinch, and Vonage.
