# MessageFlow Shield 360: Proactive Threat Protection

MessageFlow's proprietary **Shield 360** technology is an intelligent system designed to protect your SMS communication from danger. It features a special alert system that notifies you of attempts to extort data or impersonate your brand. This multi-layered defence system operates in real-time and was developed as part of a collaborative ecosystem of security partners, including **Google, Bitly, CERT Polska, NASK, PayPal, and leading antivirus providers.**

Shield 360’s core modules include:

* **Anti-Phishing:** Proactively blocks dangerous SMS messages and malicious links by leveraging a vast network of threat intelligence partners.
* **Fraud Alert:** An intelligent algorithm that informs our team of potential threats, allowing for instant reaction and mitigation.
* **Anti-Traffic Pumping:** Monitors and analyses sending patterns to detect and block fraudulent traffic, protecting the integrity of the communication channels.
