    This document discusses using Line Information Databases (LIDBs) for number to name authentication. LIDBs contain phone number, class of service, name, and other information. They are geographically dispersed, fault tolerant, real-time databases designed for fast lookups. Telephone companies maintain accurate LIDB data to reduce fraud. Illuminet has access to LIDBs via SS7 and can query them using TCAP to authenticate numbers and names for ENUM through standardized GetData queries. This solution provides number to name authentication and helps prevent fraud and number hijacking.

    The Illuminet Solution


    After researching the data sources and possible protocols of all the databases Illuminet has access to, LIDB is a clear solution for number to name authentication.

    LIDB (Line Information Database)


    Positive database Contains only working numbers Almost all working numbers are stored in LIDB LIDB data sets are: Telephone Number Class of Service Generic Name Calling Name Some LIDBs contain: address and Zip Code

    The Illuminet Solution


    LIDB platforms are: geographically dispersed fault tolerant real time databases. LIDBs are built to be fast. They are designed to supply information during call processing. The administrators/owners (Telephone companies) of the data housed in LIDB keep the data accurate because it lessens their exposure to fraud and if the data isnt accurate their subscribers ability to make calls can be impacted. Standards have been set for query and response formats. They can be accessed via ILLUMINET via IP.

    The Illuminet Solution


    How to access the information in LIDB Use a TCAP query called GetData Telcordia GR2838
    Percentage of LIDBs with GetData capability 70-75 percent. Companies that do not have GetData today are looking for business case justifications to deploy it ENUM could be the driver Expect 100 percent coverage

    Illuminets Network is connected to all LIDB databases
