The MDTP working group will continue to extend its work on device theft prevention . Work proposed for 2016 includes developing recommendations on: . next generation anti-theft features, . assessment of the effect of previous recommendations on device theft, . development of recommendations for improvements in consumer outreach efforts, . development of mechanisms to support easier access for law enforcement to IMEI information, . and examination of methods for carriers to provide more useful data related to device theft and for fostering greater global effectiveness of proposed solutions. 4 WG Participants Gunnar Halley, Microsoft .

Set up the common framework for collection of centralized data post July 2015 (e.g., through CTIA with input from OS providers, mobile operators, and law enforcement agencies) and framework for analysis of the data . (CTIA) Nielsen survey of consumers is in the field on the effectiveness of the theft prevention . (CTIA) Operator survey is currently underway to aggregate information . Continued studies to determine whether implementations post July 2015 have the desired effect on mobile device theft . Need to have data from CTIA and LEA from the above item before analysis can be performed. Using the mechanisms being developed in ATIS and GSMA on enabling a mechanism for IMEI to be retrieved on disabled devices and educational outreach to law enforcement on using the mechanism . ATIS and GSMA best practices are in place. Education outreach should be delayed until devices are available aligning with best practices. Consider a study on how to expand blacklisting to all US carriers, working with the GSM Association/GSMA North American Regional Interest Group and CTIA . GSMA/GSMA-NA are attempting to work with carriers in the region to encourage them to use the IMEI database. CTIA joint meeting with GSMA discussed development of a plan to outreach to these other US carriers. 6 Status Review of MDTP 2014 & 2015 Recommendations . Develop Cross Reference of Industry MDTP Activity to MDTP Recommendations . Goal – make sure action is underway for all recommendations . Identified Gaps to address: . Solutions providers and the ecosystem involved in reverse logistics (carriers, device recyclers, device resellers, etc.) - ensure that the solution providers have enacted a mechanism for reverse logistics providers . Perform ongoing study of potential new, measurable risks to public safety that requires future assessment and consideration by industry . Perform ongoing study and monitoring of the dynamic and changing threat environment . Investigation into whether the increased availability of anti-theft functionality on new have any effect including increasing consumer use of these features . Examine if anti-theft solution providers may be able to provide consumers a feature to determine enrollment status in their solution in such a way that the consumer does not have to be in physical possession of the device . ATIS, working with other key stakeholders such as the GSM Association, identify key technological areas where the FCC should seek further information from industry, including: 1. IMEI 2. Requirements and use of databases 3. Future theft prevention opportunities 7 Cross Reference of Industry MDTP Activity to MDTP Recommendations Recommendation Associated Industry Recommendation Associated Industry Activities Activities Recommendation (2014) 1.4 ATIS Best Practices for Obtaining Recommendation (2014) 3.3 CTIA Stolen Phones Working Mobile Device Identifiers for Group Recommendation (2014) 1.5 Mobile Device Theft Prevention Recommendation (2014) 3.4 CTIA Mobile Device Information (MDTP) Portal (MDIP) GSMA IMEI Retrieval on GSMA IMEI Database Disabled/Locked Devices Recommendation (2014) 3.5 CTIA Mobile Device Information Recommendation (2014) 1.6 CTIA Stolen Phones Working Portal (MDIP) Group Recommendation (2014) 1.7 GSMA Information Reporting CTIA Stolen Phones Working Recommendation (2014) 1.15 CTIA Stolen Phones Working Group Group Recommendation (2014) 3.6 CTIA Mobile Device Information Portal (MDIP) GSMA Carrier Recruitment Recommendation (2014) 2.1 GSMA IMEI Database (GSMA CTIA Stolen Phones Working Liaison with CTIA) Group Recommendation (2014) 2.2 CTIA Stolen Phones Working Recommendation (2014) 3.7 This effort is underway with Group continuous updates being provided Recommendation (2014) 3.1 CTIA Mobile Device Information to the FCC by CTIA.
