Your One-Stop-Shop to Ensure FCC Compliance for DNO Regulations

Illegal and unwanted traffic isn’t just a nuisance — it’s a growing regulatory risk. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is cracking down on fraudsters exploiting voice and text channels, mandating proactive measures across the communications ecosystem. In a recent expansion of its call blocking requirements, the FCC adopted an Eight Report and Order which requires compliance obligations beyond Gateway Providers to ALL service providers in the call path to block illegal robocalls. One key requirement: using a Do Not Originate (DNO) list to prevent spoofed, invalid or high-risk numbers from ever initiating a call or text. That’s where RealNumber® DNO comes in.
