Security at Telnyx
Everything we do — from the network infrastructure and products we build and monitor 24/7, to the vendors we choose to work with — is carefully designed with security in mind.
Network Infrastructure
Our global backbone offers a more direct, secure route for your packets. The Telnyx IP-network links global points of presence with a private MPLS fiber backbone. Fewer hops ensures the lowest latency and the tightest security - always.
Tier-1 interconnects at major global internet hubs mean calls avoid the public internet. And by separating our network from the public internet, Telnyx is able to maintain far greater levels of control and security than our competitors.

Fraud Detection and Prevention
Telnyx detects fraud using a statistical model that alerts us to any abnormal behavior in real-time. You can learn more about how this works here. We also have a dedicated Fraud Prevention Team that operates 24/7. To help prevent fraud, we suggest you also take these actions to protect your account:
- Secure your account passwords.
- Review access logs on a regular basis
- Restrict web access to your PBX/VoIP system
