Outcome-led solution

Route Testing and Validation

Route testing and validation sends controlled, identified test messages over a route to real devices and compares what was submitted with what was received, producing an evidence-based judgement of the route's integrity and quality.

The challenge

  • DLRs do not reveal manipulation
  • Supplier claims are unverified
  • Corrective actions are not retested

Why test SMS routes with real devices?

Gateway delivery receipts confirm that a supplier accepted a message, not that the subscriber received it intact. Guardivia Honeypot SMS Testing and Route Assurance uses real SIMs and devices on live networks to measure sender-ID and content integrity, true latency, message-centre changes and multipart completeness, and to flag grey-route, SIM-box and GT-based bypass indicators.

FAQ

Questions about this solution

How quickly can a route test be requested?

Use the Request a Route Test form; the QoS Engineering Team scopes countries, operators and message types with you.

Run a controlled route test.

Send identified test traffic through the route you want to verify, then compare the submitted record with real-device evidence.
