Robocall Mitigation Database

The Robocall Mitigation Database (RMD) is a crucial component in the fight against the proliferation of unwanted and illegal robocalls. Managed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States, the database serves as a repository for information about the steps voice service providers are taking to mitigate robocalls. Here’s an overview of the RMD, its purpose, and its impact on telecommunications

Purpose of the Robocall Mitigation Database

The primary purpose of the Robocall Mitigation Database is to ensure that voice service providers implement effective measures to combat robocalls. It is part of the broader effort to enforce the STIR/SHAKEN standards, which aim to authenticate caller ID information and reduce caller ID spoofing. Providers that cannot fully implement STIR/SHAKEN due to technical limitations are required to submit detailed robocall mitigation plans to the RMD, outlining how they will prevent their networks from being used to transmit illegal robocalls.
