| 10:00 - 10:10 | Opening and welcome remarks
|
| 10:10 - 10:20 | Setting the scene: fraudulent communications and the signalling trust gap
Objectives: Why calling line identification can be falsified in interconnected networks; what the resulting harm looks like for consumers, enterprises and financial institutions; why measures applied at the network edge alone have not resolved it. Framed using the threat classification of [ITU-T Q.3066] and the vulnerabilities documented in [ITU-T QSTR-SS7-DFS]
|
| 10:20 - 10:50 | The ITU-T secure signalling framework and standards for certificate-based CLI authentication
Objectives: Presentation of the standards baseline: the architecture and trust anchor model of [ITU-T Q.3057]; the signalling procedures and protected message structure of [ITU-T Q.3062]; the CLI authentication procedures of [ITU-T Q.3063]; the protocol extensions of [ITU-T Q.763] Amd. 7 and companions; the certificate issuance requirements and cross-border trust anchor certificate list of determined draft [ITU-T Q.3070]; and the governance framework under development as draft [ITU-T E.RAA4Q.TSCA] in ITU-T SG2. What an implementation consists of, and where the principal deployment decisions arise.
|

Objectives: Short factual questions on the material presented. Substantive discussion is held for the roundtable.
|
11:00 - 11:30
