Lawful Intercept training course description Packet based networks require a different approach to Lawful Intercept (LI) than that used in circuit switched networks. This course focuses on what Lawful Interception and Data Retention (DR) means to communications service providers in the IP and NGN areas. The course assumes a basic knowledge of IP networking (i.e. DNS, TCP/UDP, IP, RTP) and the building of services on an IP platform (e.g. SIP, SDP, FTP, HTTP). The course first looks at the regulatory context for LI and DR and how this is translated to a practical architecture. What will you learn Recognise the legal and regulatory obligations to provide LI and DR. Identify the components of the handover architecture for each of LI and DR. Identify the preferred location of points of interception and points of retention in the IP network. Map intercepted material to handover protocols. Understand the data mapping defined in the available standards for both LI and DR. Lawful Intercept training course details Who will benefit: Technical and managerial staff needing to implement public networks. Prerequisites: TCP/IP Foundation Duration 1 day Lawful Intercept training course contents What is meant by LI and DR? Review of regulation: Data protection Directive; Data Retention Directive; RIPA. LI architectures Handover and Interception: ETSI standards ES 201 671 and TS 102 232. LI handover protocol IRI and CC handover; correlation; manual interfaces. DR architectures Handover of query results; points of retention. DR query command set Retrieval of retained records. Security concerns Operation privacy; target privacy; storage and transmission integrity. Implementation Identifying PoI and PoR for provided services. LI and DR wrap up Interaction with other services, storage obligations (volume, time, availability).

About this Training Front End Loading (FEL) is a methodology that takes a deliberate approach to capital project planning. Where traditional project plans seek to help an operator reach production targets and budgets, FEL methodology aligns an operator's technical and business goals to create a more comprehensive development plan. The FEL approach increases project definition and lowers risk to positively impact total investment costs and return on investment. Training Objectives Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: Learn the methods applied for Pre-FEL and FEL process Understand the importance of FEL, FEL stages; visualisation, conceptualisation, definition Uncover how to apply project management during FEL Determine risk management in the FEL process Understand benchmarking & value improving practices   Target Audience The course is recommended for anyone who wish to gain in-depth knowledge and understanding of the importance of Front-End Loading and how to apply Front End Loading best practices, including: Team Leaders Senior Managers (Line and Function) Project Managers Development Engineers Graduate Engineers Quality Assurance Engineers Key Contractor's Management FEED engineers Design engineers Mechanical engineers Process engineers   Course Level Basic or Foundation Trainer Your expert course leader is a subsea pipeline consultant with extensive experience in the design, construction, and installation of subsea pipelines for the oil and gas industry. As a consultant, he provides technical expertise and support to clients on all aspects of subsea pipeline projects, from the initial planning and design phase through to construction and commissioning. He is knowledgeable about industry standards, regulations, and best practices for subsea pipelines, and works closely with clients to ensure that projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget. He has over thirty years' experience in early concept and front-end studies for the initiation of numerous high value upstream oil and gas projects worldwide.
