Description

Many regulatory authorities require operators to provide Lawful Interception capabilities. This Hot Topic aims to drive:

Understanding the impact of virtualisation on the regulatory requirements of Lawful Interception
Exploration of architectures and designs to allow Lawful Interception capabilities to be provided in NFV deployments
Proofs of Concept(s) to show Lawful Interception capabilities in conjunction with NFV

Specifically in terms of the key issues for LI, we would like to see PoCs address the problem of providing a secure platform to host sensitive workloads.

It is fundamental to the success of NFV that industry is able to offer viable solutions to these challenges.

NFV-critical functionality (for example LI) is dependent on both:

Administrative isolation: creating two layers of administration functionality for a given workload+host combination, where no leakage of information from one layer to the other is possible.

Secured execution: delivering confidentiality and integrity of instructions and data within an area of process space based on a hardware root-of-trust.

What is expected to be learnt from the NFV PoCs

Points to prove/refute

How does virtualisation impact the requirements for Lawful Interception?
What impacts are there on NFV deployments in terms of:
- Performance
- Management
- Security
What other impacts may exist?
