Getting the data for the LEA is just one part of compliance. What about
the more practical issues?
CALEA requires:
Establishment of policies and procedures for supervision and control of
officers and employees
Designating a 24/7/265 POC for the LEA
Validating legal authorization for the ELSUR
Maintaining secure and accurate records
Reporting any CALEA security breaches
AND... filling with the FCC how you are going to do the above.
Not implementing the policies and procedures may result in legal liability.
Assuming you have all that is needed to be compliant how do you actually
comply with an order? You are going to at least need to collect the
following information:
Telephone number/circuit ID
Start date/time
Officer presenting order
Judge issuing order
Type of ELSUR
Supervising carrier personnel
Certification of “senior official...”
Subscriber name
Date/time order served
Court issuing order
Court docket/file number
Law enforcement officers authorized to receive info
LEA contact numbers
Carrier employees involved
And what about the warrant's validity? CALEA requires the carrier to
determine the following:
Does the Court have jurisdiction over Carrier?
Does the Court Order provide for Technical Assistance?
Has the Court provided for compensation?
If problems arise, how does the carrier address the issues –
inside/outside counsel, Service Bureau, etc
Just in case you are wondering, acting on an invalid subpoena is $1,000
min fine. Further, if you are acting in bad faith, the court can create,
at carrier expense, a court-supervised monitor of your compliance to
ensure due diligence. Any violations detected by the monitor can result
in additional fines.

Well, just over 2 weeks away from the deadline.
We have a webinar with Solera Networks on Tuesday, May 01, 2007 11:00 AM.
RSVP for info.
After many webinars, white papers, legal briefs, it seems that although your
edge router may be CALEA compliant, that might not be enough. You might need
a mediation box to take the data into an acceptable format for the DOJ. (In
most cases, you will need to transmit in real-time without adding noticeable
latency or lag).
Lots of my notes and thoughts are here:
