About Arad ITC

Arad ITC is an Iranian technology company specializing in communications infrastructure, enterprise messaging, and intelligent communication-management solutions. The company began its operations in 2005 with a clear focus: building reliable, secure, and scalable infrastructures capable of managing high volumes of digital communications across banks, telecom operators, large enterprises, and high-transaction environments.

Today, Arad’s products and technologies are deployed across some of the country’s most critical messaging infrastructures, supporting the management, control, routing, security, and processing of enterprise communications.

Arad is not simply a messaging service provider; we design the infrastructure behind communications.


Nearly Two Decades of Experience in Mission-Critical Communications Infrastructure

Operating in banking, telecommunications, and enterprise communications means working in environments where availability, security, and scalability are not competitive advantages; they are fundamental requirements.

For nearly two decades, Arad has developed solutions specifically designed for such environments systems that may need to handle millions of requests within seconds, sudden traffic spikes, multiple communication routes, and complex security requirements.

Our experience working with banks, telecom operators, messaging aggregators, technology companies, and large organizations has enabled us to build solutions shaped not by laboratory assumptions, but by real operational requirements.


Domestic Technology, Independent Architecture

One of Arad’s core principles from the beginning has been to reduce reliance on foreign technologies and external services in mission-critical areas.

A significant part of the technology behind Arad’s products including message-processing engines, Message Brokers, communication libraries, Failover mechanisms, routing systems, and security components has been developed by our own engineering teams.

This technological independence enables us to adapt our products to the specific requirements of banks, operators, and Iranian enterprises, while maintaining the flexibility needed to address international markets and deployment environments.


Beyond Message Delivery

In many systems, messaging is reduced to a simple task: sending a message.

Arad takes a different approach.

In a real communications infrastructure, several questions must be answered before a message is delivered:

Which system generated the message?
Is the sender authorized?
Which communication channel should be used?
What is the best delivery route?
What happens if an operator or route becomes unavailable?
Who should bear the cost of the message?
Should it be delivered through SMS, Push Notification, or another channel?
How can duplicate messages, fraud, unauthorized routes, and abuse be prevented?
And finally, how can the complete message lifecycle be traced from creation to delivery and financial settlement?

Arad’s products are designed to address exactly this layer of complexity.


The Arad Product Ecosystem

Arad’s solutions form a portfolio of independent yet fully integrable products, each designed to manage a specific part of the enterprise communications lifecycle.

Arad Unified Message Gateway

Arad Unified Message Gateway provides a centralized integration point for managing and delivering enterprise messages across multiple communication channels and infrastructures. It is designed for organizations that require high-throughput processing, intelligent routing, centralized control, and high availability.

Arad Notification Wallet

Arad Notification Wallet is an intelligent layer for managing messaging costs, credits, packages, quotas, and financial policies. Particularly in banking environments, it enables organizations to decide before a notification is sent whether it should be delivered, how its cost should be funded, which customer or account it belongs to, and which communication channel is most appropriate.

Arad SMS Firewall

Arad SMS Firewall is designed to monitor and secure SMS traffic. It helps detect suspicious patterns, unauthorized routes, abuse, spoofing, phishing, and abnormal messaging behavior.

Arad Omni Switch

Arad Omni Switch provides intelligent traffic routing and distribution across operators, aggregators, and multiple communication paths. Through configurable policies, Load Balancing, Failover, and route-quality control, it enables organizations to select the most effective delivery route in real time.

Artak Push Notification Platform

Artak is an enterprise-grade Push Notification platform for managing and delivering push notifications at scale. It supports campaign management, user segmentation, scheduling, delivery and engagement analytics, and direct digital communication with users.

Arad SMPP Gateway and Other Communication Solutions

Arad has also developed a range of specialized gateways, libraries, infrastructure components, and services for communication and messaging protocols, enabling organizations and telecom operators to connect securely and reliably to messaging networks.


Security by Design, Not as an Add-On

At Arad, security is not a feature added after a product has been built.

Our products are designed from the beginning around identity segregation, system-level authorization, secure communications, comprehensive event logging, auditing, idempotency, duplicate-request prevention, route control, and recovery from infrastructure failures.

In systems that process banking transactions, OTPs, security alerts, and sensitive enterprise information, security and resilience must exist throughout the entire lifecycle—from request ingestion and processing to routing, delivery, and final status registration.


Scalability for Real-World Conditions

A messaging platform may perform well under normal conditions, but its real value becomes clear when traffic suddenly multiplies or when a critical infrastructure path becomes unavailable.

Arad products are engineered for these conditions.

Distributed architectures, asynchronous processing, Load Balancing, Failover, Queue Management, real-time processing, and operational monitoring are fundamental parts of our design approach.

The objective is to ensure that the infrastructure remains stable and available under heavy traffic without relying on a single point of failure.


Deep Experience in Banking

Banking has been one of Arad’s most important areas of focus throughout its history.

Banks send enormous volumes of critical messages every day from OTPs and security alerts to transaction notifications, installment reminders, cheque updates, and other customer communications.

Arad’s long-term cooperation with major banks has shaped a significant part of our product architecture around real banking requirements, including:

  • 24/7 availability
  • High transaction-volume tolerance
  • Comprehensive security and auditability
  • On-Premise deployment
  • Integration with Core Banking systems
  • Messaging cost control
  • Multi-operator routing
  • Disaster Recovery and Failover
  • Accurate and auditable reporting

Based on operational data and internal reports, a significant share of the country’s banking-message traffic passes through Arad infrastructure—a position built over years of focus on reliability, security, and engineering quality.


Flexible Deployment Within Customer Infrastructure

One of the core principles of Arad’s product architecture is deployment flexibility.

Depending on organizational requirements, our solutions can be provided through several deployment models:

On-Premise
Full deployment within the customer’s own data center.

Private Cloud
Deployment within the customer’s dedicated cloud infrastructure.

Hybrid
A combination of internal infrastructure and external services.

This flexibility enables security-sensitive organizations particularly banks and telecom operators to retain full control over their data, infrastructure, and security policies.


Designed for Integration

In a large organization, no product operates in isolation.

For this reason, Arad products are designed from the outset to integrate into the customer’s technology ecosystem.

Core Banking, card platforms, CRM, Fraud Management systems, Internet Banking, Mobile Banking, lending systems, Billing platforms, Data Warehouses, and other enterprise applications can connect to Arad infrastructure through standard or dedicated APIs and communication protocols.

Our goal is not to create a closed, isolated product. Our goal is to become a reliable part of the organization’s broader technology architecture.


Innovation Driven by Real Problems

At Arad, innovation does not begin with technology. It begins with a problem.

We first identify the operational challenge facing a bank, operator, or enterprise, and then design the appropriate technology to solve it.

Sometimes the answer is an intelligent routing algorithm.
Sometimes it is a financial Ledger.
Sometimes it is an SMS Firewall.
Sometimes it is a real-time processing engine.
And sometimes it is the use of artificial intelligence to detect abnormal behavior or improve communication decisions.

This is why Arad products focus less on decorative feature lists and more on solving real operational problems.


Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Communications

The next generation of communications infrastructure will not merely transmit messages; it will make decisions about them.

At Arad, we are developing AI-driven capabilities in areas such as anomaly detection, traffic analysis, route optimization, behavioral security, intelligent channel management, and usage-pattern analysis.

Our objective is to enable future communication systems not only to deliver messages, but also to determine the optimal time, route, channel, cost model, and security level for each communication.


Expanding into International Markets

Arad’s vision extends beyond the Iranian market.

In recent years, international expansion has become one of the company’s strategic priorities. Arad has begun developing its presence in regional markets, including Oman, while exploring and expanding opportunities in India, Europe, Africa, and other high-growth markets.

Our objective is not merely to export software products. It is to bring to international markets the expertise we have gained through nearly two decades of operating in one of the region’s most demanding and high-traffic communications environments.


Our Mission

To build infrastructure that makes mission-critical enterprise communications secure, reliable, controllable, and intelligent.

We want organizations to manage customer communications without being constrained by infrastructure limitations, traffic volume, or the complexity of communication routes.


Our Vision

Arad’s vision is to evolve from a messaging-solutions company into an international infrastructure technology provider for secure and intelligent communications.

We envision a future in which enterprise communication is not simply about sending a message, but about making an intelligent decision regarding its content, importance, channel, cost, security, and optimal delivery route.


The Values That Guide Us

Trust
Infrastructure responsible for mission-critical communications must first and foremost be dependable.

Engineering Before Appearance
For us, the true value of a product lies in its architecture, reliability, and performance not merely in its interface or feature list.

Security by Design
Security must begin with the first architectural decision.

Technological Independence
In mission-critical areas, the ability to develop, understand, and control our own technology is strategically important.

Scalability
A solution that meets today’s requirements must also be prepared for tomorrow’s growth.

Flexibility
Every bank, telecom operator, and enterprise has its own architecture and policies. Technology should adapt to the organization not the other way around.

Practical Innovation
Technology creates value when it solves a real problem better.


Arad Today

Arad ITC today represents nearly two decades of experience at the intersection of banking, telecommunications, security, and software engineering.

We continue to pursue the same challenge that defined our company from the beginning only now at a much larger scale:

How can enterprise communications become faster, more secure, more controllable, and more intelligent?

Our answer is to build infrastructure that organizations can trust systems that may remain invisible during ordinary operations, but must continue working flawlessly at the moments when they matter most.
