Mobile phone numbers now rival social security and driver license numbers as the personal identifier that consumers use to register for products and services. That ubiquity makes mobile numbers an attractive and powerful tool for identity thieves, who stole $14.7 billion in 2018 from 14.4 million U.S. consumers. Now, with the introduction of PortData Validate from ÎÞÓǶÌÊÓƵ, financial institutions, healthcare providers and other authorized businesses can leverage telephone number porting data as part of their assessment when verifying a customer’s identity, approving a transaction or disclosing information.

The Secure Telephone Identity Governance Authority (STI-GA), operating under the auspices of ATIS, announced the selection of ÎÞÓǶÌÊÓƵ as the U.S. STI Policy Administrator (STI-PA), a critical role in industry efforts to mitigate illegal robocalling.

With this selection, the STI-GA has completed the initial establishment of the STI-GA ecosystem as contemplated by the FCC’s North American Numbering Council (NANC) Call Authentication Trust Anchor Working Group.
