Call Authentication Trust Anchor; 

Appeals of the STIR/SHAKEN 

Governance Authority Token 

Revocation Decisions 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal 

Communications Commission (the 

Commission) adopts rules establishing a 

process for voice service providers 

aggrieved by a token revocation decision 

of the private STIR/SHAKEN 

Governance Authority to file a request 

for review to the Commission. Without 

this process the private STIR/SHAKEN 

Governance Authority can place other 

private entities out of compliance with 

the Commission’s STIR/SHAKEN 

implementation rules without oversight 

from the Commission. The adopted 

rules will provide appropriate oversight 

and ensure due process for voice service 

providers aggrieved by a Governance 

Authority token revocation decision. 

DATES: Effective September 30, 2021.

Synopsis 

I. Introduction 

Caller ID authentication using the 

STIR/SHAKEN framework is a key 

component of our multi-pronged effort 

to combat the scourge of illegal 

robocalls. STIR/SHAKEN is a set of 

technological standards that helps to 

prevent illegal ‘‘spoofing,’’ a practice 

that involves falsifying caller ID 

information in order to trick 

unsuspecting Americans into thinking 

that calls are trustworthy because the 

caller ID information appears as if the 

call came from a neighbor or a familiar 

or reputable source. With voice service 

providers required by our rules to 

implement STIR/SHAKEN in the 

internet Protocol (IP) portions of their 

networks by June 30, 2021, Americans 

are now in a position to answer their 

phones with greater confidence that the 

number displayed is correct. 

To guard against bad actors and 

preserve trust within the distributed 

caller ID authentication system, the 

ability of a voice service provider to 

participate in STIR/SHAKEN can be 

revoked by the private Governance 

Authority that oversees the STIR/ 

SHAKEN framework. This revocation 

process effectively allows the private 

Governance Authority to make 

decisions that render voice service 

providers noncompliant with our rules. 

To provide appropriate oversight and 

ensure due process, today we establish 

a process for voice service providers to 

appeal such revocation decisions to the 

Commission. 

II. Background 

To address the issue of illegal caller 

ID spoofing, technologists from the 

internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) 

and the Alliance for 

Telecommunications Industry Solutions 

(ATIS) developed standards to allow for
