Geo profile allows you to divide the world’s countries into zones depending on the call processing approach: Trustful (for expected locations), Cautious (for unusual locations), Paranoid (for high-risk locations). A call made from a specific country is allowed, screened, or rejected, depending on which zone it comes from.

To create a new geo profile, fill in the geo profile details and click Save.

Default approach to calls

Link copied to clipboard

Choose the default call processing approach. It is applied to calls from all user locations unless a user location is specified as an exception in the profile:

  • Trustful – the calls are allowed.
  • Cautious – a specific number of suspicious calls can be made without screening (the default value is 5, it can be changed to 3 or 10). After that, any attempt to make an outgoing call will be screened. The users will have to provide additional credentials to prove their legitimacy.
  • Paranoid – any attempt to use the service is immediately screened and treated as a potential security breach.
