Telecom solutions for service, identity, channels, operations and security

Customers judge a telecom operator in the store, in the app and on the bill. Crest modernises all three, verifies who every subscriber is, and secures the platforms underneath, with proven enterprise products and one delivery team for mobile operators, MVNOs and fixed-line providers.

Customer service

Shorter, predictable waits in every store

iRetailOS QMS gives real-time visibility of waiting times, SLA risk and customer satisfaction across all service centres.

Customer identity

Verify every subscriber in seconds

iVerifier eKYC combines document OCR, face match and passive liveness to stop SIM-swap fraud and speed up onboarding.

Digital channels

Kong API gateway and management publish, protect and observe the APIs behind every website, app and partner integration.
paperless-operations-ecm-bpmn-dark

Paperless operations

Alfresco Enterprise and BPMN 2.0 digitise back-office processes and lock down customer, legal, finance and contract documents.

Platform security

Terraform Enterprise, Vault Enterprise and StackGuard automate infrastructure and keep credentials short-lived and rotated.

Start here

Pick one journey, API product, process or platform, prove the value in production, then scale across the network.

Telecom queue management system for stores and service centres

Walk-in queues decide how customers feel about your brand. iRetailOS unifies appointments, walk-ins and virtual queuing, routes each customer to the right skill, and shows waiting times, walkaways, SLA risk and customer satisfaction across every store and service centre in one view.

Telco journeys, ready to run

Prebuilt flows for SIM swap and replacement, KYC updates, device repair intake, new activations, plan upgrades and corporate lanes, with iVerifier eKYC at the counter where identity matters.

Full visibility across branches

Average and predicted waiting time, SLA compliance, walkaways (abandonment), staff utilisation and a satisfaction index from post-visit feedback, by branch, journey and hour.

Virtual queuing and smart routing

Customers check in by app, web or kiosk and wait remotely with live position and predicted wait, while priority rules and skills-based routing balance load across counters.

Integrate without rip-and-replace

Connect CRM, iVerifier eKYC, billing and provisioning through connector packs and event-driven triggers, with retries and replay.

Tools for staff and supervisors

Counter and supervisor views, skill assignment, and alerts when a journey is at risk of breaching its SLA.

Insight for leaders

Root-cause analysis, anomaly detection and auto-generated reports show why waits rose, where and for which journeys.

Start small, then scale

Begin with one or two branches and one journey, then extend to multi-region governance with tenant isolation, role-based access and audit-ready logs.

eKYC and identity verification for telecom onboarding and SIM replacement

Know that every subscriber is real, in seconds. iVerifier combines document OCR, face match and passive liveness on one platform: one API launches a hosted capture session and returns a signed verdict, with no capture UI to build, in stores, self-care apps and dealer channels.
ekyc-iverifier-hosted-capture-and-signed-verdict

Stop SIM-swap fraud and account takeover

Re-verify the customer with a live selfie matched to their ID portrait before SIM replacement, number recovery or other high-risk account changes.

Onboard subscribers in seconds

Document OCR reads the ID, while face match and passive liveness confirm the person is present, for postpaid plans, device financing and in-app activation.

Evidence you can audit

Every session has a transaction ID, scores for OCR, face match and liveness, reason codes, and a signed result pushed by HMAC-SHA256 webhook and always pollable.

Three calls to launch

Authenticate, initialise a flow for the document type you need, for example MyKad, and open the returned hosted URL. Results arrive by webhook, with polling as a fallback.

Every channel, one flow

Store tablets and QMS counters, self-care apps, web and dealer apps use the same hosted capture: front of ID, hologram tilt, back of ID, selfie and passive liveness.

Works alongside national digital ID

Where a national digital ID is mandated, such as MyDigital ID for prepaid SIM registration in Malaysia, keep it. Use iVerifier for journeys that need document and biometric evidence, such as SIM replacement, postpaid onboarding, account recovery and dealer onboarding.

Review every decision

Decision thresholds set the outcome for each session, and the iVerifier portal shows each session’s media, extracted fields and scores for review.
Works with the rest of the stack: publish iVerifier to dealers and partners through your Kong gateway, file verified KYC evidence in Alfresco, and keep API keys and webhook signing secrets in Vault.

API gateway, API security and network APIs for telecom operators

Websites, self-care apps, dealers, MVNO partners and API aggregators all depend on the same APIs. Kong Enterprise puts one secure, observable gateway in front of BSS, OSS and legacy systems, so you launch digital services and monetise network APIs without widening the attack surface.
kong-api-gateway-channels-to-telco-backends

Zero-trust API access

Authenticate every call with OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT and mutual TLS, and enforce access per consumer and per API, including identity APIs such as iVerifier eKYC.

Traffic control and threat protection

Rate limits and quotas protect billing and provisioning systems; request validation and anomaly detection stop abuse before it reaches the core.

Partner and network API portal

Publish API products, including CAMARA network APIs such as SIM Swap and Number Verification, with documentation, self-service onboarding and role-based access for partners and aggregators.

Hybrid and multi-cloud

Run gateways on Kubernetes, in the cloud or on-premise, with central management through Kong Konnect.

Observability

Monitor gateway health, latency and status codes, and stream API analytics to your monitoring stack through the Admin and Vitals APIs.

Modernise legacy back ends

Expose SOAP and legacy systems such as AS/400 as secure REST APIs, without rewriting them.

Govern the API lifecycle

Catalogue services in Service Hub, version APIs, manage gateway configuration with GitOps, and publish TM Forum Open API-based and GSMA Open Gateway (CAMARA) services consistently.

Telecom document management and BPMN 2.0 workflows on Alfresco

Replace shared drives and paper approvals with one governed enterprise content management (ECM) platform. Alfresco Content Services, Process Services and Governance Services capture documents, run BPMN 2.0 workflows and protect customer KYC, legal, financial, procurement and contract documents from unauthorised access.
alfresco-capture-bpmn-workflow-secure-repository

BPMN 2.0 process automation

Model approvals, SLAs, business rules and forms in a drag-and-drop designer, and run them on Alfresco Process Services, powered by Activiti.

Protect sensitive documents

Security classifications on top of permissions, role-based access, and a comprehensive audit trail for every view, change and download.

Govern the content lifecycle

Declare records and apply retention with Alfresco Governance Services, and find content fast with full-text and AI-assisted search.

Capture everything

Ingest email, portals and Microsoft Office documents, and scan paper with ABBYY OCR and intelligent document processing.

Integrate with telco systems

Connect CRM, ERP, OSS/BSS, iVerifier and low-code apps through REST APIs, so documents and verified eKYC evidence stay with the customer, contract or site they belong to.

Deploy your way

Run on-premise, in a private cloud or on Kubernetes in AWS (EKS), Azure (AKS), Red Hat OpenShift or SUSE Rancher, with S3-compatible object storage.

A modern workspace

Give teams DigiWorks, Crest’s GenAI-enabled digital workspace for Alfresco, and add Fasoo digital rights management for files that leave the repository.

Infrastructure as code and secrets management for telecom platforms

IT platforms, digital channels and cloud workloads now change daily. Terraform Enterprise brings infrastructure as code (IaC) with policy guardrails, Vault Enterprise centralises secrets management and issues short-lived credentials, and StackGuard finds and rotates secrets that leak into code, pipelines and chat.

Terraform Enterprise

HashiCorp’s self-hosted HCP Terraform: reusable modules in a private registry, policy as code with Sentinel or OPA, SAML SSO and audit logging for every change.

Vault Enterprise

Centralise secrets, issue dynamic database and cloud credentials, run PKI and encryption as a service, and rotate credentials automatically, with namespaces, replication and HSM support.

StackGuard

Discover hard-coded and leaked secrets across code repositories, CI/CD, cloud storage and chat; govern non-human identities (NHI) and AI agents; remediate and rotate credentials into your vault.

Guardrails, not gates

Policy checks run on every Terraform plan, so teams self-serve within approved patterns instead of waiting on tickets.

Short-lived by default

Vault leases expire automatically and can be revoked at once if a workload is compromised. Keep integration secrets, such as iVerifier API keys and webhook signing keys, in Vault too.

Govern non-human identities

StackGuard inventories API keys, service accounts and tokens with owners and permissions, and flags orphaned accounts.

Evidence for audits

Change history from Terraform, access logs from Vault and remediation records from StackGuard support PCI DSS, ISO 27001 and data-protection audits.

Delivery experience across regulated industries

Crest Infosolutions designs, implements and supports these platforms for organisations in more than 10 countries, from offices in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, India, the UAE and the USA.

Controls that support telecom security and data-protection obligations

Plan customer-data protection, identity verification, cyber-security obligations and audit evidence together across service, channel and platform changes.

PDPA

PCI DSS

ISO 27001

Telecom cyber codes

Compliance depends on your policies, configuration, operating procedures and audits. These platforms provide controls and evidence that support your compliance programme.

Obligations telcos plan for

Personal-data laws such as the PDPA in Malaysia and Singapore and Indonesia’s Personal Data Protection Law govern customer records; Malaysia’s 2024 PDPA amendments add biometric data to sensitive personal data, which matters for eKYC selfies. SIM registration and KYC rules, including national digital ID where mandated, apply to subscriber onboarding. Critical telecom infrastructure also falls under national cyber-security regimes, such as Malaysia’s Cyber Security Act 2024 and IMDA’s Telecommunication Cybersecurity Code of Practice in Singapore.

Where the controls sit

API gateway: authentication, access policy and logging for every API that touches customer data. Alfresco: classification, access control, audit and retention for KYC, legal and contract documents. Vault and StackGuard: credential hygiene, encryption keys and rotation. Terraform: reviewed, policy-checked infrastructure change. iVerifier: session-scoped, signed verdicts with reviewable evidence for KYC audits. iRetailOS: role-based access and audit-ready logs.

Start with one service centre, one API product or one process

Each solution area can start as a focused pilot with measurable outcomes before it expands across the network.

Phase 1

Workshop + pilot scope

Pick the journey, identity check, API product, document process or platform to start with; agree success measures such as waiting time, verification time, API latency, approval cycle time or secrets found.

Phase 2

Pilot in production

Go live in one or two service centres, add eKYC to one journey such as SIM replacement, publish the first secured API product, automate one BPMN workflow, or onboard one platform team to Terraform and Vault.

Phase 3

Scale + operate

Roll out across regions and channels, add journeys and APIs, and hand over runbooks, dashboards and support from Crest.

Start with one service centre, one API product or one process

Book a 2–3 hour workshop for the area that matters most this year: customer service, customer identity, digital channels, paperless operations or platform security.

Telecom solution FAQs

Practical answers for CX, digital, operations and platform teams.

What is a telecom queue management system?

A telecom queue management system organises how customers book, arrive, wait and are served in telco stores and service centres. iRetailOS unifies appointments, walk-ins and virtual waiting, routes each customer to the right counter and skill, and measures every journey from arrival to outcome.

Customers join the queue from the app, web or a kiosk and wait wherever they like, with live position and predicted wait. Fewer people crowd the store, waits feel shorter, and supervisors see abandonment by branch and journey so they can act before customers walk away.

Yes. Leaders see average and predicted waiting time, SLA risk, abandonment, staff utilisation and a satisfaction index from post-visit feedback, for every service centre, journey and hour, in one dashboard.

Your app, store tablet or dealer app makes three API calls to start a hosted capture session. The customer captures the front and back of their ID, a hologram tilt and a selfie; iVerifier runs document OCR, face match and passive liveness, then returns a signed verdict to your CRM or provisioning system by webhook, with polling as a fallback, usually within seconds.

No. Where a national digital ID is mandated, such as MyDigital ID for prepaid SIM registration in Malaysia, follow that requirement. iVerifier covers the other journeys that need document and biometric evidence, such as SIM replacement, postpaid and device-financing onboarding, account recovery and dealer onboarding.

Websites, self-care apps, dealers and partners all call the same billing, CRM and provisioning systems. An API gateway such as Kong authenticates every call, applies rate limits and threat protection, and logs traffic in one place, so new digital services launch faster without exposing the core.

Yes. CAMARA is the open-source project, run by the Linux Foundation with the GSMA, that defines the network APIs behind GSMA Open Gateway, such as SIM Swap, Number Verification and Device Location. Kong can secure, meter and publish those APIs, alongside TM Forum Open API-based services, to developers and aggregators through its developer portal.

Yes. Alfresco Content Services provides the repository, Alfresco Process Services runs BPMN 2.0 workflows for approvals, and Governance Services applies retention. Crest migrates content and metadata from legacy systems and integrates CRM, ERP and OSS/BSS through REST APIs.

Terraform Enterprise provisions infrastructure from reviewed code with policy checks. Vault Enterprise issues short-lived credentials and certificates to the applications and pipelines Terraform deploys. StackGuard finds secrets that have leaked into code, pipelines or chat, then helps remediate and rotate them into Vault.

Kong, Alfresco, Terraform Enterprise and Vault Enterprise support on-premise, private-cloud, public-cloud and Kubernetes deployments. For iRetailOS and iVerifier, Crest confirms the hosting model with you. Crest designs the architecture around your data-residency, security and availability requirements.
