In our never-ending effort to stay on top of the latest goings on in the industry, I am proud to announce the addition of a new blog to TMCnet. As of this morning, Scott Coleman, director of marketing — lawful intercept at SS8 Networks, is covering the timely subject of CALEA in his new TMCnet blog.
CALEA, or Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act, refers to a law passed back in 1994 that requires service providers to assist law enforcement with the process of wiretapping or “intercepting” communications among suspected criminals.
I say timely, because the industry is now facing down a May 14 deadline, which is the date that all broadband service providers and interconnected VoIP providers must have their networks CALEA compliant.
So what does this mean?
Check out Scott’s blog and you’ll come away with the answers to that question.
Welcome Aboard, Scott!
