The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) is a key player in developing standards for lawful interception (LI) in telecommunications. With a market-driven approach and broad industry participation, ETSI focuses on facilitating the technical handover interface for law enforcement agencies. Key achievements include the development of the ES 201 671 specifications, addressing law enforcement requirements, and adapting to new technologies like GPRS and UMTS. ETSI continues to address evolving needs in the growing data landscape, emphasizing efficiency, simplicity, and cost-effectiveness in standardization.
