Giving service providers the tools needed to sign and verify calling numbers makes it possible for businesses and consumers to know, before answering, that the calls they receive are from legitimate parties. <o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>President Trump signed into law the <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/151" target="_blank">Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence Act</a>, or the "TRACED Act" (S.151) on December 30, 2019.<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>The TRACED Act authorizes the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to issue additional civil penalties on individuals who intentionally violate restrictions on the use of automated telephone equipment (i.e., illegal robocalls and spoofing); and directs the FCC to require voice service providers to offer call authentication technologies (i.e., STIR/SHAKEN) to consumers.<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>On March 31, 2020, the United States Federal Communications Commission <a href="https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-363399A1.pdf" target="_blank">adopted new rules requiring implementation of caller ID authentication using “STIR/SHAKEN."</a> These rules will further the FCC’s efforts to protect consumers against malicious caller ID "spoofing," which is often used during robocall scam campaigns to trick consumers into answering their phones.<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Most recently, with the recent release by the FCC on October 1, 2020 of the <a href="https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-20-136A1.pdf" target="_blank">Second Report and Order in the Matter of the Call Authentication Trust Anchor (WC Docket No. 17-97)</a>, there are a host of new issues for the industry at large to consider.<o:p></o:p></p><p>"With the latest release by the FCC of Docket 17-97, there is a renewed and continuing need for the telecommunications industry to gather and study the ramifications of this new report and order, and to respond with well-considered action. This, and the fact that the TRACED Act and associated rules adopted by the FCC officially mandate the deployment of STIR/SHAKEN across the telecommunications landscape, there is a pressing need to provide those with a vested interest in the deployment of STIR/SHAKEN the most timely and essential information they need to tackle the technological, logistical, business and regulatory and enforcement challenges involved in that endeavor," said Marc Robins, SIPNOC 2020 Program Chair, and SIP Forum President and Managing Director.<br><br>SIPNOC 2020 will feature a series of webinars that focus on issues critical to the reliable and successful deployment and operation of STIR/SHAKEN in today’s IP-based network environments, as well as associated topics including discussion of the ramifications of governmental regulatory, legislative and enforcement actions and critical security issues.<br><br><b>SIPNOC 2020 will feature content such as:</b><o:p></o:p></p><ul type=disc><li
