Vonage’s communications and network APIs make it easy for developers to embed communications capabilities into applications, systems and workflows. With AT&T’s network leadership, together they plan to enable developers to build advanced secure, reliable and innovative applications by exposing 5G capabilities through APIs in support of driving an ecosystem for open innovation.

AT&T will make user-friendly communications and network APIs available to a broad community of developers to drive scalability and business case development together with enhanced security. These will include standardised CAMARA APIs, such as Vonage Number Verification API, which will deliver secure and reliable authentication of a mobile device in real-time, helping to protect users and businesses from fraud without burdening the user or interrupting the sign-in process. Additionally, the AT&T Device Access API provides more security to mobile phones through Single-Sign-On, and the Vonage SIM Swap API will enable developers to integrate SIM swap detection and management functionality into their applications, enhancing security by identifying potentially fraudulent activity and providing an additional layer of protection.
