Crafting an Effective and Executable RMD Filing with Denovolab

The REPLY COMMENTS OF FORTY-SEVEN (47) STATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL to the public notice issued by the Wireline Competition Bureau and Office of the Managing Director on Improving the Effectiveness of the Robocall Mitigation Database, WC Docket No. 24-213, et al., Adopted August 7, 2024 (“August 2024 Notice”), underscores the critical need for robust and actionable robocall mitigation plans. These comments highlight the FCC’s dissatisfaction with generic or boilerplate RMD submissions that fail to demonstrate measurable strategies against robocall fraud. Service providers are reminded that the RMD is not a checkbox exercise—it is a critical tool for showcasing compliance, operational integrity, and a commitment to fighting fraudulent traffic.

This blog will explore the significance of submitting an effective and executable RMD plan, why a strong plan matters for service providers, and how Denovolab's fraud protection tools can simplify compliance while delivering superior protection against robocall traffic.

The Importance of a Strong RMD Filing

A robust RMD plan serves as a statement of a service provider's commitment to tackling robocall issues head-on. Submitting a vague, unoriginal, or ineffective plan not only risks regulatory scrutiny but also leaves networks susceptible to abuse. A well-structured plan can:

• Demonstrate a proactive approach to FCC compliance.
• Enhance trust and reputation with both regulators and subscribers.
• Shield the network from the operational disruptions caused by fraudulent traffic.

By leveraging innovative solutions like Denovolab, service providers can easily create an actionable and comprehensive strategy to submit as part of their RMD.

How Denovolab Simplifies RMD Compliance

Denovolab provides a suite of advanced tools tailored to robocall mitigation and regulatory compliance. These features allow providers to address all major points required in the RMD while enhancing the security and efficiency of their networks.

Key Features to Include in Your RMD Plan

1. Certificate-Based Call Verification Denovolab enforces STIR/SHAKEN compliance, ensuring only calls with valid and non-expired certificates are passed through. Calls with invalid, expired, or fake signatures are blocked, guaranteeing adherence to FCC identity verification standards.

2. Blocking High-Risk Numbers Denovolab integrates with Do Not Originate (DNO) and Do Not Call (DNC) lists to automatically block high-risk caller IDs. This prevents unauthorized or fraudulent calls from entering your network.

3. Spam Filtering with YouMail By integrating with YouMail's database, Denovolab preemptively blocks robocall sources identified as spam, ensuring subscribers receive only legitimate traffic.

4. Blocking FTC Reported Complaints Denovolab uses the FTC’s complaint database to identify and block all numbers flagged as spam or fraud. This continuous synchronization with FTC data ensures your network reflects real-time fraud trends and threats.

5. Robodialer Detection and Blocking Denovolab’s algorithmic pattern detection identifies robodialer traffic based on abnormal calling behaviors, such as high-frequency, repetitive call patterns. These calls are flagged and stopped in real time.

6. Real-Time Monitoring and Reporting Detailed analytics from Denovolab provide insights into network traffic and fraud mitigation performance. These insights can be included in your RMD plan to demonstrate compliance and the efficacy of your strategies.

Why Denovolab Stands Out

• Seamless Compliance: Designed with FCC requirements in mind, Denovolab makes it easy to create and execute a compliant RMD plan.
• Advanced Fraud Protection: With cutting-edge detection and filtering tools, Denovolab minimizes risks from fraudulent traffic.
• Network Efficiency: Denovolab ensures high CPS and minimal post-dial delay (pDD) while enforcing strict fraud controls.
• Ease of Use: The platform’s intuitive interface allows service providers to implement robust fraud mitigation measures without disrupting existing workflows.

Conclusion

The REPLY COMMENTS submitted in response to the August 2024 Notice emphasize the importance of creating an actionable and effective RMD plan. Service providers must go beyond basic compliance and submit plans that clearly demonstrate how they mitigate robodialer traffic. Denovolab’s powerful tools and integrations simplify this process, providing a comprehensive, executable strategy to meet regulatory expectations while protecting your network.
