  TIM S.p.A. (formerly Telecom Italia) is the incumbent Italian
  telecommunications operator headquartered in Rome and one of the largest
  telcos in Europe. The group operates fixed and mobile networks across Italy
  under the TIM Consumer and TIM Enterprise brands, runs TIM Brasil (the
  second-largest mobile operator in Brazil), and owns a portfolio of
  technology subsidiaries including Sparkle (international connectivity and
  quantum-safe infrastructure), Noovle (cloud), Telsy (cybersecurity), and
  Olivetti (IT services). TIM exposes its mobile network as a programmable
  platform through the developer.tim.it portal in Italy and through
  TIM Open Gateway in Brazil, both implementing CAMARA-standard network APIs
  (SIM Swap, Number Verification, Know Your Customer, IP-to-MSISDN, IP-to-
  Number, Device Location) jointly defined by the Linux Foundation, TM Forum,
  and GSMA. These APIs let banks, fintechs, insurers, retailers, and online
  services authenticate users, detect SIM-swap fraud, verify customer
  identity, and locate devices using TIM's mobile network as the trust anchor.
  As of late 2025 TIM Brasil reported 50 million Open Gateway API queries
  across its catalog.

    name: TIM SIM Swap
    description: >-
      CAMARA-aligned API that returns the timestamp of the last SIM swap
      (or whether a swap occurred within a caller-supplied window) for a
      given TIM mobile number. Used by banks and fintechs as a signal
      against account-takeover and SIM-swap fraud before authorizing
      sensitive transactions.

    description: >-
      CAMARA Number Verification API that authenticates a mobile device
      by silently confirming the MSISDN bound to the active mobile data
      session against the number asserted by the application. Eliminates
      the need for SMS-OTP and replaces it with passive carrier-grade
      verification.

      manual KYC review.
