Caller ID spoofing is a pervasive issue in the telecom world, enabling scammers to mask their true identities and deceive unsuspecting victims. Fortunately, the STIR/SHAKEN framework offers a robust solution, and Peeringhub streamlines its implementation for service providers.
The Dangers of Spoofing
Caller ID spoofing allows scammers to impersonate banks, government agencies, or other trusted entities. By disguising their phone numbers, they trick people into divulging sensitive information, leading to financial fraud, identity theft, and more.
How STIR/SHAKEN Works
STIR/SHAKEN is a powerful authentication system that combats spoofing. Here's how it works:
Digital Signature: The originating service provider attaches a unique digital signature to each call.
Verification: The receiving service provider verifies the signature.
Action: If the signature is invalid, the call can be flagged as suspicious or even blocked.
The FCC mandates STIR/SHAKEN implementation for all US service providers, ensuring greater security across the telecom network.
