In this Q&A with Vanilla Plus, iconectiv’s Chief Product Officer Michael O’Brien discusses the multiple measures being taken to tackle the global spread of robocalls and other frauds.

The second set of policy changes are designed to authorize Responsible Organizations (Resp Orgs) to access Service Provider Code tokens.
