The present application describes providing an attestation level to a received communication. The attestation level may be used to communicate a level of security to a network or a called party that receives the communication. The attestation level associated with the communication may indicate to a destination network and/or recipient that the phone number associated with the communication is secure and/or the telephone number has not been spoofed.

Intelligent attestation of traffic using a routing engine

A differentiated routing system includes a computer-executable system to receive a request from a first network gateway of a native network for establishing a communication service from a calling party terminal to a called party terminal. Upon receipt of the request, the system determines that policy information is not known for the calling party terminal that has originated the request, and therefore append a tag to the request in which the tag indicates that the requested communication service is to be established using one or more generic policies. The generic policies include one or more default policies to be used for establishing the communication service. The system then transmits the request to a routing device, wherein the routing device determines how the communication service is routed through the native network according to the one or more generic policies.

Subscriberless differentiated routing system and method

Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, computer program products, and the like, for providing one or more toll-free services to a customer of an enterprise telecommunications network environment. In particular, the toll-free services may be provided to the customer by one or more application servers associated with the network. Through use of the systems and methods of the present disclosure, such services may be provided for the customer regardless of the method of routing through the network requested by the customer. For example, the toll-free communication may be transmitted through the network based on a destination telephone number associated with the customer. In another example, the toll-free communication is transmitted through the network based on a destination trunk group associated with the customer.
