Narus Lawful Intercept Enhanced to Support VoIP Lawful Interception

Lawful Intercept Product Supports Push to Talk over Cellular and Wireline VoIP

CTIA WIRELESS 2005, BOOTH #6925, New Orleans, LA, March 14, 2005—Narus, Inc., the leading Carrier-Class IP Platform software provider, today announced the enhancement of Narus Lawful Intercept (NarusLI®) to include support for Push To Talk over Cellular (PoC) and wireline Voice over Packet (VoP) for Tier-1 Carriers and broadband telephony companies. These enhancements add to the functionality of NarusLI, which already supports packet-mode data intercepts for cellular networks.

NarusLI is designed to meet the various government regulations for lawful intercept compliance around the world, and is one of many applications supported on the Narus IP Platform. Additional application areas are traffic anomaly detection, IP monitoring, IP mediation for Billing, and NarusView™ real-time traffic and customer analysis. When using the Narus IP Platform, adding other applications, such as NarusLI, is incremental.

Designed to the Lawfully Authorized Electronic Surveillance (LAES) model, NarusLI provides carriers with compliance to the CALEA and ETSI standards. NarusLI is an effective solution for carriers with the staff, facilities and expertise to properly execute intercept orders, or for managed service providers to whom the carriers turn to for support.

"The tremendous growth of VoIP applications has driven regulators to require lawful intercept support in VoIP networks," said Jay Thomas, vice president of product marketing, Narus. "Because of the scalability of the Narus IP Platform and the ease of extending it to support multiple applications, Narus is fast becoming the preference amongst network operators around the world."

Key features of NarusLI include:

  • Warrant Management System - for securely managing resources, LEA connections and users while performing audits and reporting
