La#ful In*erce.*ion

The interception of telecommunications by Law Enforcement Agencies (LEA's) and intelligence services, in accordance with local law and after following due process and receiving proper authorization from competent authorities.

Abou* Se.*ier
Founded in 2000 Privately owned Develops advanced Telecom and IP solutions More than 40 customers around the world

Technology & oem partnerships with:

Legisla*ion 6orces 7ommunica*ion Service :rovi;ers <7S:s= *o Ac*

Dozens of countries around the world have legislated lawful interception and intelligence gathering Communications services providers must comply with local laws and regulations in order to get and maintain their licenses

The Results
Heavy investments are carried out by CSPs and LEAs Systems procurement and installation Systems maintenance

>conomical 7?allenges
Extract more security out of LI budgets LEAs Recuperate the cost of Lawful interception CSPs Maintain LI systems in a high level of service and operations status CSPs LEAs

@?a* 7an Ae DoneC

Adopta(dualusage.strategywhenever possible Combine lawful interception with commercial systems
! Share investments between LEAs & CSPs

Generate additional revenues for the CSP Save costs for the CSP Without scarifying performance and security While fully complying with local laws and regulations
