Role Implementation Voice service provider None Overall None - Exemption rules
- The Company will comply fully with all conditions set forth in the FCC’S 2020 Report and Order mandating the implementation of the STIR/SHAKEN framework, as well as with the Commission’s rules and policies more generally. Pursuant to the exemption described in Paragraph 40 of FCC 20-42 (WC Docket No. 17-97), we are a hosted VoIP provider that does not control the network infrastructure necessary to implement STIR/SHAKEN, nor do we have the ability to obtain an SPC token. Accordingly, we are exempt from the obligation to obtain our own STIR/SHAKEN certificate or perform call signing. Our upstream provider fulfills the STIR/SHAKEN authentication requirement on our behalf using its own certificate. For purposes of the STIR/SHAKEN attestation, the Company’s upstream provider has confirmed that their network treats ICS calls as reseller traffic, based on ICS’ assertion that it is eligible for the STIR/SHAKEN exemption. Therefore, the upstream provider has authenticated the call as the originating provider using their SHAKEN certificate and has inserted a STIR/SHAKEN header into the SIP invite. The upstream provider then assigns either A or B attestation depending on whether the calling number is assigned to us in their number inventory.; The Company will comply fully with all conditions set forth in the FCC’S 2020 Report and Order mandating the implementation of the STIR/SHAKEN framework, as well as with the Commission’s rules and policies more generally. The Company is implementing STIR/SHAKEN through use of Underlying Carrier. This is a managed end-to-end call authentication solution that fully satisfies the FCC’s STIR/SHAKEN requirements. It provides a standardized approach to call authentication and verification (STIR – RFC 8224, RFC 8225, RFC 8226 and SHAKEN – ATIS-1000074-E, ATIS-1000080, ATIS-1000082). For purposes of the STIR/SHAKEN attestation, the Company’s Underlying Carrier has confirmed that our network treats ICS calls as reseller traffic, based on ICS’ assertion that it is eligible for the STIR/SHAKEN exemption. Therefore, the Underlying Carrier has authenticated the call as the originating provider using our SHAKEN certificate and has inserted a STIR/SHAKEN header into the SIP invite. The Company’s Underlying Carrier then assigns either A or B attestation depending on whether the calling number is assigned to you in our number inventory.
