Service providers are required to comply with regional lawful interception regulations, which may include providing communication network data and/or information about particular subscribers to law authorities to help prevent or investigate crimes.
Fulfilling lawful interception requests requires a granular view of network activity and the ability to map a particular IP address back to a specific subscriber. Fortunately, DHCP servers can be configured to log and record lease information, offering the following benefits:
- Centralized management: Easily track and locate lease information for requested IP addresses.
- Timely and accurate data: Provide precise IP address assignment information for investigations.
- Scalability: Efficiently handle large networks with numerous IP address assignments.
- Audit trail: Maintain comprehensive records of IP address transactions for compliance and investigation purposes.
- Streamlined compliance: Simplify legal requirements by configuring DHCP servers to meet logging and retention obligations.
All these features facilitate an effective response to lawful intercept requests and are available with Incognito's Central Lease Service, a value-added module of our Broadband Command Center.
