This public service application leverages Neustar’s commercial CNO caller name registration clearing- house service — currently deployed for many of the largest enterprises across finance, health care, in- surance and retail industries — as a centralized platform to register with leading mobile apps and more than 800 mobile, cable, VoIP and landline carriers.
“These are extraordinary circumstances, and we need to ensure our essential organizations can com- municate effectively throughout this crisis,” said James Garvert, Senior Vice President and General Man- ager of Caller Identification Solutions at Neustar. “One way Neustar can help is to ensure critical health calls are getting through. Our aim is to correct the inadvertent spam mislabeling and call blocking that is catching legitimate emergency and COVID-19 related calls in the same net as calls from scammers and spoofed robocallers, and to do so for any emergency service provider that needs it, at no expense.”
