Suntech participates on ISS World EMEA event in Dubai
Suntech was part of the selected group of companies who were exhibitors at Telestrategies Event – ISS World EMEA in Dubai, the biggest global event for Lawful Interception. It happened in February 2008, from the 25th to the 28th. ISS World EMEA presented different applications, tools and other solutions which will organise, control and track the data that was collected from the Interceptions and also, stored in data retention solutions.
Benjamin Peña, Suntech´s Marketing Manager, was a one of the speakers and presented two different topic, the first is the “Implementation of a low cost solution for non-regulated countries” following a Trusted Third Part (outsourcing model), which can be set up quickly and tailored to meet the needs of different markets. This technology is specially designed for medium to small service providers. The second speech was about “Data Retention – Low-cost data storage in a multifunctional solution”, this solution considers low cost data retention, and it can also meet other needs from the service provider, such as network performance.
Lawful Interception is an outstanding topic at the moment in the telecommunication market. “For the first time, global vendors such Nokia, Siemens and Ericsson are offering solutions, participating at, and sponsoring Telecom events, says Luis Alves, Suntech´s Director Business Development - EMEA Office. A few years ago the number of countries which had a proper legislation for interception was very low, therefore most of the participants of ISS World EMEA are Authorities whom are either reformulating their laws or creating ones.
Lawful Interception is becoming more and more important for developing nations. However, in these countries, like in Brazil, the service providers face typical technology challenges without any help from legislation or massive amounts of money, like in Europe or United States. “This situation creates a complex scenario, where only the ones who adapt to local conditions and keep up with competition are prone to succeed. And it´s exactly in this point that Suntech has the best offer”, explains Benjamin Peña, Marketing Manager.
