Measures for use in processing communication sessions in a telecommunications network are provided. Each communication session has a signaling path spanning a plurality of devices including one or more intermediate network devices and at least two endpoint devices, the signaling path comprising a plurality of signaling segments, each segment being between two devices in the plurality of devices. A first signaling message, comprising a first identifier associated with the communication session, is received via a first signaling segment for a communication session. At least part of the first identifier is transformed using a deterministic encryption algorithm to generate a second identifier. A second signaling message, comprising the second identifier, is transmitted via a second signaling segment for the communication session to associate the second identifier with the communication session.
A method of processing communication sessions in a telecommunications network, each communication session having a signaling path spanning a plurality of devices including one or more intermediate network devices and at least two endpoint devices, the signaling path comprising a plurality of signaling segments, each segment being between two devices in the plurality of devices, the method comprising:
A session border controller for processing communication sessions in a telecommunications network, each communication session having a signaling path spanning a plurality of devices including one or more session border controllers, a softswitch and at least two endpoint devices, the signaling path comprising a first signaling segment located between one of the endpoint devices and the session border controller, and a second signaling segment located between the session border controller and the softswitch, the session border controller comprising:
A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer readable instructions stored thereon, the computer readable instructions being executable by a computerized device to cause the computerized device to perform a method for processing communication sessions in a telecommunications network, each communication session having a signaling path spanning a plurality of devices including one or more intermediate network devices and at least two endpoint devices, the signaling path comprising a plurality of signaling segments, each segment being between two devices in the plurality of devices, the method comprising:
