GII Objectives
The GII must be designed to:• enable information providers and users (e.g.
individuals, information users, information providers, and information service providers) to communicate securely with each other any time and anywhere at acceptable cost and with acceptable quality
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
• provide a set of communication services
• support a multitude of open applications
• embrace all forms of information and
information generation (audio, text, data,
image, video, etc.), and of its use and
transportation
• operate in a transparent, user-friendly and straightforward way
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
• provide seamless, interconnected and
interoperable communication networks,
information processing equipment, data-
bases and terminals (including TV-sets)
• enable competition between the players in
the information and telecommunications
(including broadcasting) sectors

IP Aspects
• Explosive growth of IP based networks
• Data traffic growing ten times faster
than voice traffic
• In near future will account for over 80%
of all traffic on telecomms networks
• Business directions are changing
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
• Shorter development cycles
• Shorter life cycles for services and
products
• Standards bodies must be able to
respond
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
• Interoperability of IP and telecomms networks and of their services is of major concern
• IP based services are required with the speed, capacity, ease of use, reliability and integrity that has been associated with the world wide public telephone network
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
The ITU-T IP Project In its capacity as ‘Lead Study Group for
IP related studies’ Study Group 13 has
developed an ‘ITU-T IP Project’ which:
– is separate from, but closely related to GII
studies
– is intended to encompass all related ITU-T
work

IP Project Area 10 – Security Aspects
Scenarios include:• A voice call from an IP terminal connected to an
IP-based network to a GSTN phone • A voice call from a GSTN phone to an IP terminal
connected to an IP-based network • A voice call from a GSTN phone to another GSTN
phone via an IP network• A voice call from an IP terminal connected to an
IP-based network to another IP terminal connected to an IP-based network via the GSTN

Commerce• the support of standardized transactions, i.e.
presentation of the offer, navigation and selection
• the exchange of commercial documents such as orders, invoices, contracts
• the support of delivery, especially with regard to electronic goods
• a high level of security• means for the support of payments
Lucent TechnologiesLucent TechnologiesBell Labs InnovationsBell Labs Innovations
Pointers to new standards requirements
• Much of the current debate is not about standards but the security environment and administrative / regulatory issues
• Many of the necessary standards are in place or are being enhanced but further extensions could be considered to support and / or enable further harmonisation of authentication technologies
