We like our calls Shaken and Stirred
Oh the FCC and government agencies in general; they like their acronyms. Net253 phone service is SHAKEN/STIR compliant. What is that you may ask? No, it isn’t a Martini (my first thought)
STIR/SHAKEN is a technology framework designed to reduce fraudulent robocalls and illegal phone number spoofing. STIR stands for Secure Telephony Identity Revisited. SHAKEN stands for Secure Handling of Asserted information using toKENs.
The FCC has adopted rules requiring service providers to deploy a STIR/SHAKEN solution by June 30, 2021.
We shall see if this really helps or not. It has caused a lot of “ripples” in the SIP/VOIP/telco community.
