ATLaaS integrates RealNumber® DNO by Somos

BEND, OR – March 1, 2023 - ATLaaS (a software company that simplifies the telecom industry for service providers and enterprise businesses across the U.S. with modern API-enabled SaaS platforms) today announced that the company has entered into an agreement with Somos, Inc., a global source of number administration, routing data, identity verification, and identity management services for the telecommunications industry. This agreement enables the ATLaaS portal to interface directly with RealNumber DNO, the industry’s most comprehensive source of local and toll-free number DNO records.  

RealNumber DNO, powered by Somos, includes data on more than 7 billion local and toll-free numbers in North America that have been identified as numbers that should never originate a call. With the integration of RealNumber DNO into the ATLaaS platform, ATLaaS customers will now have the ability to identify any managed number as a DNO number. This is a critical step in helping to prevent that number’s use in telecom fraud.  

 “Our Enterprise Businesses and Telecom Service Providers we serve need authoritative solutions that put our customers’ needs first, and Somos has delivered!” said Mark Bilton-Smith, CEO of ATLaaS. “ATLaaS and PortControl take it one step closer to the customer by giving them complete control over their DNO updates, number inventory, and reports on ONE modern and simplified SaaS platform. Somos and ATLaaS are extremely excited about the value we will bring to the telecom industry together, and there is much more to come.”   

With access to RealNumber DNO, ATLaaS users can easily identify and flag certain numbers or blocks of numbers within their inventory as ‘do not originate’ … helping to prevent fraudsters from spoofing their numbers for illegal or invalid outbound calls, and reducing the risk of fraudulent activity on their valuable numbering assets. Somos’ RealNumber DNO database is updated in near real-time and provides the industry and ATLaaS users with a single authoritative source of the most accurate and trusted information in the fight against robocalling. 

“For over 50 years, Toll-Free Numbers have played an important role in keeping businesses and consumers connected,” stated Jaime Zetterstrom, Vice President of Product Development at Somos. “Somos is excited to support ATL Communications in their mission to further the safety, security, and reliability of these numbering assets. The addition of RealNumber DNO’s identification capabilities to their ATLaaS platform provides a much-needed extra layer of protection from scammers and robocallers.”
