BSNL today launched its Spam-Free Network, which the company claims will automatically filter out phishing attempts and malicious SMS, creating a safer communication environment for users without the need to issue alerts. This ensures seamless and secure communication for all.
Additionally, BSNL introduced a first-of-its-kind seamless Wi-Fi roaming service for its FTTH customers, enabling high-speed internet access at BSNL hotspots at no extra charge, thus minimising data costs for users. BSNL also launched IFTV, India's first fiber-based intranet TV service, offering over 500 live channels and Pay TV through its FTTH network. This service will be available to all BSNL FTTH subscribers without additional charges, and the data used for TV viewing will not count against the FTTH data pack.
With the Any Time SIM (ATS) Kiosks, BSNL will allow users to purchase, upgrade, port, or replace SIMs on a 24/7 basis, leveraging UPI/QR-enabled payments with seamless KYC integration and multilingual access.
BSNL’s first Direct-to-Device (D2D) connectivity solution converges satellite and terrestrial mobile networks to deliver seamless, reliable connectivity. This groundbreaking technology is particularly useful in emergency situations and isolated regions, enabling UPI payments in such areas.
The government sector telecom company's ‘Public Protection & Disaster Relief’ initiative provides a secure network for disaster response, offering India’s first guaranteed encrypted communication for government and relief agencies during crises, thereby enhancing national disaster management capabilities. The robust network design guarantees uninterrupted connectivity and incorporates innovative drone-based and balloon-based systems to extend coverage during disasters.
