IP Fabrics CALEA System Selected by AlaWeb Internet ServicesDeepSweep™ for CALEA system provides "safe harbor" to meet FCC deadline Beaverton, OR – May 17, 2007 - IP Fabrics, Inc. announced today that the Internet Service division of AlaWeb, Inc. of Andalusia, AL has selected IP Fabrics’ DeepSweep for CALEA system to provide CALEA compliance, beating the FCC deadline of May14, 2007. DeepSweep was chosen over several other solutions due to the system’s cost effectiveness and full compliance with the FCC’s T1.IAS specification, which offers safe harbor. The Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) was originally enacted in 1994, but was recently extended to include Broadband Internet Access Services and VoIP Services in order to assist law enforcement agencies to execute authorized surveillance of digital communications. Services providers can comply with CALEA in various ways, including purchasing complaint solutions from vendors and are offered safe harbor if the solution adheres to industry standards, such as T1.IAS. “We are proud that AlaWeb has met the CALEA requirements ahead of the deadline,” stated AlaWeb’s vp of Operations, Paul Spears Sr. The IP Fabrics DeepSweep™ for CALEA is the first self-contained network surveillance system that provides with Broadband and VoIP CALEA compliance. Ideal for small and medium-sized ISP and VoIP networks, a single DeepSweep system functions as the complete CALEA compliance solution, providing the probe, mediation/delivery, and administration functions, which are commonly implemented as separate devices. “The installation went very smoothly – I was very impressed with the DeepSweep CALEA interface and how simple it is to execute a court order intercept” said Paul Spears Jr., network administrator for AlaWeb.
