Abstract

A system and method of detecting false Short Messaging Service (SMS) delivery reports utilizing machine learning. A statistical model is prepared based on attributes of SMS delivery reports that are known to be genuine. An anomaly detection algorithm compares attributes of the subsequent SMS messages against the statistical model. The anomaly detection algorithm is used to detect, and flag false SMS delivery reports returned by aggregators and operators.
