Advancements
in communication technology are the key reasons for the growth of LI
market. With increasing complications in the way communications are
done, a more advanced LI system is the need of the hour. Some
examples of communication types that are intercepted include VoIP,
Email, NGN, MMS, SMS, images, and telephony. As per laws passed by
governments all around the globe, it is mandatory for telecom and
internet providers to support lawful interception. The legalities
regarding lawful interception of communication data varies from
country to country and may even differ from one state to the other.
Mobile
Data Communication would be a significant contributor to the lawful interception market. “In
almost each and every country, there are laws and regulations that
regulate lawful interception activities in the country. In countries
where the laws are not yet complete and are not followed by the
telecom providers completely due to lack of a full-fledged technical
capability to support such interceptions, in many the LI activities
are still done.
Government in many countries does LI in the
communications without any warrant or legal authorization. With
regard to 2G, 3G and 4G data connections, LI is done for each of
these communications whether for packet data or for voice callings.
The share of 2G, 3G and 4G in the global lawful interception market
has direct relation with the share of consumers for each telecom
technology,” states AMR analyst.
