Abstract

The present disclosure describes techniques for selective attestation of a wireless communication session between an originating device and destination device. Attestation of the originating device identity depends in part on determining that the destination network associated with the destination device deploys a STIR/SHAKEN framework for end-to-end authentication and assertion of a telephone identity. This disclosure describes techniques to verify that the destination network has deployed the STIR/SHAKEN framework based on the administrative operator carrier number (AOCN) or operator carrier number (OCN) of the destination network. In response to determining the destination network has deployed the STIR/SHAKEN framework, a carrying node is configured to selectively generate instructions to include an attestation of an identity of the originating device in the SIP INVITE message sent to the destination network.
