STIR/SHAKEN

When using DIDWW for outbound call termination no further actions are required from the customer’s side. The DIDWW numbers, which are used as caller-ID will receive the highest A attestation level, while the 3rd party source numbers will be appended with B attestation level.

Please follow the DIDWW news releases for more updates as STIR/SHAKEN guidelines and our offered options continue to evolve.
