Subsentio Challenges Communications Industry: Put Your CALEA Compliance to the Test

WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2014) - Subsentio is offering a free Risk Assessment Test that lets any communications service provider quickly determine whether it meets the compliance requirements of the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA). The test is available on Subsentio's home page: www.subsentio.com

The Subsentio CALEA Compliance Risk Assessment Test coincides with the 20^th anniversary of CALEA. Twenty years after the fact, many communications service providers still fail to observe the law. The penalties for non-compliance with CALEA can be harsh, including mandatory court appearance by the company's chief executive officer, court fines and possible jail time.

"On numerous occasions we have encountered established as well as next generation service providers who are at risk," said Martin McDermott, Executive Vice President - Marketing for Subsentio. "Some have solutions that are technically out of date, others have failed to file mandatory plans with the Federal Communications Commission, and a few have no CALEA program in place at all, and are completely exposed."

McDermott added: "When lives are at stake in a criminal investigation and law enforcement is authorized to proceed with the surveillance of dangerous elements, they must work at speed -- and thus have little patience with any organization whose negligence menaces public safety. Our test helps companies take immediate action to comply with the law and protect themselves against legal sanctions that can be swift and severe."

Subsentio's CALEA Compliance Risk Assessment Test asks simple but probing questions on a participant's current capabilities -- technically and legally -- to execute lawful intercept on receipt of a court order. Fact-based and vendor neutral, the test can be completed in a minute or less.
