STIR/SHAKEN solution, to ensure compliance with the MAN (Mécanisme d'Authentification des Numéros) Project conducted by the regulator ARCEP. Through this deployment, Legos customers are expected to benefit from increased call trust and a drastic reduction in malicious calls, helping to safeguard them against telephony-based fraud. “With malicious calls from bad actors on the rise we want to help build assurances for our customers and protect network users against robocalls, fraud and call spoofing,” said Michel Gacem, CTO & Solution Manager Director, Legos. “We’re excited to be furthering our existing partnership with Ribbon, whose expertise in this field will enhance the security of our network services.” Part of the

Legos will leverage Ribbon’s expertise through similar implementations in the USA that have well proven benefits to customers. In addition to STIR/SHAKEN, Legos will add Ribbon’s market leading
core SBC for security and interworking, and
