The full agenda and schedule of events for the 15th Annual SIPNOC Conference is now live, featuring an array of sessions focused on the Call Authentication ecosystem and the continuing efforts to eliminate illegal robocalls and caller ID spoofing. Additional topics include new regulatory and industry efforts to accelerate the transition to an all-IP national network infrastructure, the evolution of the STIR/SHAKEN framework, call analytics and vetting, new branded calling services, the state of international traceback and STIR/SHAKEN adoption, new KYC initiatives, enterprise requirements and challenges, U.S. federal, state, and international regulatory and enforcement actions, the role and impact of AI, and much more.
The SIP Forum has announced that the conference agenda has been published for the 15th Annual SIP Network Operators Conference (SIPNOC 2026), which will take place September 15–17, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Dulles Hotel in Herndon, Virginia.
SIPNOC 2026 features a primary focus on issues critical to the reliable and successful deployment and operation of STIR/SHAKEN and other call authentication solutions, along with a variety of related topics, including the impact of regulatory, legislative, and enforcement actions, as well as critical security issues.
In addition, SIPNOC 2026 will include special coverage of renewed efforts to accelerate the national transition to an all-IP network infrastructure due to its foundational importance for the reliable delivery of call authentication, branded calling, and a wide range of communications services and applications. This coverage will include key regulatory actions and a new industry standard—the "Agreement-Less IP Interconnection over the Internet" (ALIII) standard—designed to help accelerate the transition.
The SIP Forum, together with the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS), has been at the forefront of the call authentication effort since forming the Network-to-Network Interface (IP-NNI) Joint Task Force to address unwanted and illegal robocalls and caller ID spoofing, and to develop standards for verifying and authenticating caller identification for calls using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). The result of this collaboration has been the SHAKEN Call Authentication Framework.
SIPNOC has become the premier gathering place for the call authentication community, and we look forward to once again sharing the expertise and real-world experiences essential to the ongoing development of successful solutions and strategies to combat the Robocall and scam call scourge," said Marc Robins, SIP Forum President and Managing Director, and Chair of the SIPNOC Program Committee.
