From marc.robins at sipforum.org Fri Jun 4 11:28:33 2021 From: marc.robins at sipforum.org (Marc Robins) Date: Fri, 4 Jun 2021 07:28:33 -0400 Subject: [Sipnoc] Save the Dates for the 2021 STIR/SHAKEN VIRTUAL SUMMIT Message-ID: <000901d75934$c0bd4580$4237d080$@robins@sipforum.org> Save the Dates for the 2021 STIR/SHAKEN VIRTUAL SUMMIT! Virtual event reprises special mid-year webinar series focused on the STIR/SHAKEN Call Authentication Framework; will take place the week of July 19-23, 2021 and feature expanded coverage of International deployment status and considerations, as well as the latest examination of issues vital to the successful deployment of the STIR/SHAKEN Call Authentication Framework and the ongoing efforts to combat illegal Robocalls and Caller ID Spoofing 99 Developed jointly by the SIP Forum and ATIS (the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions) to efficiently implement the Internet Engineering Task Force?s (IETF) STIR (for Secure Telephony Identity Revisited) standard, SHAKEN (for Signature-based Handling of Asserted information using toKENs) defines a mechanism to verify the calling number and specifies how it will be transported across communications networks. Together, STIR/SHAKEN offers a practical mechanism to provide verified information about the calling party as well as the origin of the call ? what is known as "attestation" ? for the first time in the network. 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. The TRACED Act , signed into law on December 30, 2019, authorized 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 directed the FCC to require voice service providers to offer call authentication technologies (i.e., STIR/SHAKEN) to consumers. With the STIR/SHAKEN service provider certification deadline of June 30 established by the FCC fast approaching, and the deadline for call blocking to commence 90 days following that (September 30, 2021), the race is on for a large percentage of service providers to deploy STIR/SHAKEN in time. The 2021 STIR/SHAKEN VIRTUAL SUMMIT will offer the most timely and essential information these providers need to tackle the technological, logistical and business challenges involved in that endeavor. The 2021 STIR/SHAKEN VIRTUAL SUMMIT will feature content such as: * Status of Out-Of-Band STIR solutions * Review of DOJ/FCC/FTC Enforcement Actions and Their Ramifications * Review of International Attestation Considerations and Strategies * Track and Trace Issues and Considerations * Important Certificate Management Considerations and Procedures * Considerations Surrounding Delegated Certificates * RCD (Rich Call Data) and other Call Validation Display Framework Solutions * STIR/SHAKEN Deployment Best-Practices * Considerations for Management, Performance and Troubleshooting * "Know Your Customer" and Call Vetting Solutions: Implementing STIR/SHAKEN with Enterprise Customers * Interconnection and Access Reform Challenges Diamond Sponsors Platinum Sponsor GOLD SponsorS The 2021 STIR/SHAKEN VIRTUAL SUMMIT will provide actionable information for all industry stakeholders in the Robocall and Caller ID Spoofing elimination/mitigation ecosystem, including telecommunications providers, major backbone operators, interconnect and wholesale solution providers, ISPs, cable operators, and wireless network operators, as well as governmental regulators and agencies, regulatory attorneys with state and federal jurisdictions, equipment manufacturers and mobile product developers, device integration specialists, large enterprise service assurance operations and IT/communications staff, government agencies, customer care/contact centers, and application providers and data analytics firms.
