The FCC Wireline Bureau exempted seven voice service providers from secure telephone identity revisited (Stir) and signature-based handling of asserted information using tokens (Shaken) requirements, said a Wednesday public notice. AT&T, Bandwidth, Charter, Comcast, Cox, Verizon and Vonage received exemptions and must still verify that they met full implementation in the second certification round. The bureau denied Nsight's exemption request.
