ARLINGTON, Va. and LOWELL, Mass., July 17,
2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Numeracle™ Inc., the pioneer
of robocall blocking and labeling visibility and control in the
calling ecosystem, and NetNumber, the world's leading provider
of next-generation centralized addressing, routing and database
solutions to the global communications industry, today
announced a partner objective to deploy Numeracle's Trusted Entity™
and phone number data onto NetNumber's Global Data Services
platform as the Trusted Entity Registry to identify trusted callers
in support of industry-wide efforts around SHAKEN/STIR and default
call blocking objectives.
As the only solution provider offering entities the ability to
register phone numbers and certify the Trusted Entity status of
their organizations, Numeracle provides a single path to
proactively identify legitimate entities and prevent the improper
blocking of legal, wanted calls across multiple carriers and
service providers. The Trusted Entity Registry will expand the
reach of Numeracle's existing platform to identify organizations,
such as emergency services, schools, businesses, healthcare
providers, financial establishments, retailers, resorts,
charities or any entities whose calls are not the intended
target of the FCC-approved default call blocking ruling.
"With the FCC's approval of default call blocking at the
carrier-level, the need for such a solution to ensure legal, wanted
calls are not unintentionally blocked is a matter of urgency and
necessity for the telecom industry," said Rebekah Johnson, Founder & CEO, Numeracle.
"By carrying out our vision of integrating with NetNumber, we are
creating the ideal vehicle for entities to register phone numbers
and establish trust in their calls utilizing NetNumber's expansive
reach to carriers and service providers. This solution will enable
the carriers to move forward with more aggressive call blocking
tools, while formalizing the redress mechanisms for entities who
are erroneously blocked."
The Trusted Entity Registry will be delivered as an extension of
NetNumber's well-known GDS platform as a free cloud service made
available to communication service providers and analytics engines
to ensure critical, trusted communications are not blocked. This
solution creates a direct line of access to verified, legal caller
identification data for both terminating and originating carriers.
The Trusted Entity Registry is being provided by Numeracle and
NetNumber at no charge to service providers and analytics engines
that need the information to avoid inappropriate blocking of wanted
and critical calls.
While the immediate benefit of this relationship works to
prevent the erroneous blocking of critical, wanted calls, this
solution positions both companies to continue focus on innovating
further solutions to strengthen SHAKEN/STIR.
"NetNumber has been actively engaged in working with the
SHAKEN/STIR framework in support of our service provider and
carrier customers. Adding the Trusted Entity Registry to our
product line is a logical next step in the evolution of a broader
SHAKEN/STIR solution. Numeracle is the perfect partner to
provide the vetted calling-party data to help the industry to move
towards a model of end-to-end trust," said Doug Ranalli, NetNumber's Founder and VP of
Global Data Services. "This partnership paves the way to strengthen
the SHAKEN/STIR framework beyond the baseline of preventing the
illegal spoofing of phone numbers to actually delivering the vetted
identity data required to give consumers confidence in who is
actually on the other end of the call."
