Addressing Counterfeit and Substandard ICT Devices in Brazil: The SIGA Project

Slide Note

The SIGA Project in Brazil aims to combat counterfeit and unauthorized ICT devices by implementing a centralized, automated, and scalable system to control the entrance of such devices into the market. Led by Anatel, the project involves key stakeholders to ensure the reliability and security of mobile networks. By utilizing multiple data sources and generating alarms for operators, SIGA plays a crucial role in safeguarding consumers and maintaining the integrity of the telecommunications sector.

SIGA - Sistema Integrado de Gest o de Aparelhos. O Sistema Integrado de Gest o de Aparelhos SIGA aims to control counterfeit, cloned and unauthorized mobile devices. The project is based on Anatel Regulatory framework that dictates that operators can only allow on the network authorized devices. The Project is lead by Anatel with the participation of all relevant actors (Anatel, Operators, ABR- Telecom, Manufactures, GSMA, among others). The system is operated by ABR-Telecom and is active since march 2014 collecting the relevant information from all mobile networks on Brazil. The system is generating the reports and alarms necessary to map the Brazilian scenario so that Anatel can define the next actions. Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 4

SIGA Premises Centralized solution: built jointly and integrated to all Brazilian mobile operators; Automated solution: allowing the input of information with low human intervention; Scalable, Dynamic and Flexible: expandable system, rules adjusted over time; Multiple sources of info: CDRs, operators systems, international databases; Reliable and secure: Minimize impacts on regular end users; Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 5

SIGA Workflow Authorized Devices Database System receive network key informations Consumer use the device on the network System generate alarms to operator Operator take the necessary actions Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 6

Challenges Faced on SIGA Identification and definition of actions for for each scenario. Reduce end-user impact. Construct a reliable reference database. Define Legacy Terminal actions. Actions effective only on terminal already on the network. How to control the entrance of Counterfeit? Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 7

Blocking the entrance of Counterfeit Devices. Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 8

CA Policy Importance 9 Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014

Multi Layer Initiatives National: Brazil SIGA and Custom Integration. Regional: CITEL CCPI Correspondence Group on Counterfeit terminals discussions. International ITU Actions: PP14 Resolution on Counterfeit. ITU-T SG11 (Q8/11) Technical Report. ITU-D interaction with ITU-T to implement the necessary actions on developing countries. Cooperation with other organizations. Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 10

What we should look for Multi Level Actions and Cooperation. Bilateral and Regional cooperation. International best-practices and recommendations. Reduce End-user impact (Good Faith user) Good user communication is crucial. Weave for legacy terminal (turnover). National multiple actions to combat Counterfeit Structured CA Policy and Custom Integration. Solution to Remove Counterfeit from the network. Reliable reference databases to our solutions Secure unique identifier (IMEI) PP14 Res. Counterfeit Geneva, Switzerland, 17-18 November 2014 11
