Fraud Information Gathering System (FIGS); Service requirements; Stage 0
This Technical Report describes the requirements (at a stage 0 level) of the Fraud Information Gathering System (FIGS). FIGS provides the means for the HPLMN to monitor a defined set of subscriber activities.
The aim is to enable service providers/network operators to use FIGS, and service limitation controls such as Operator Determined Barring (ODB) and Immediate Service Termination (IST), to limit their financial exposure to large unpaid bills produced on subscriber accounts whilst the subscriber is roaming outside their HPLMN. HPLMNs may also choose to collect information on subscriber activities whilst their subscribers are within the HPLMN.
