    The NBIP Lawful Interception & Disclosure Service has existed for over 20 years. We now serve more than 100 participants who are all active as ISPs, VoIP providers, or offer other public telecommunications services. Although we speak of an interception service, it formally concerns lawful interception (tapping of data traffic) and lawful disclosure (providing data regarding customers such as name and address details). Authorized agencies must submit a demand to tap or request data in this way.<\/p>\n

    Who might be subject to these kinds of demands? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    Providers of public telecommunications services may be required to provide customer data or implement wiretaps when demanded by legally authorized agencies. In the Netherlands, the legal basis for this is Chapter 13 of the Telecommunications Act. In 2026, the European eEvidence regulation will be added to this framework.<\/p>\n

    Why don’t providers handle this themselves? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    Processing a demand from an authorized agency or implementing a wiretap is specialized work that also requires specific equipment. Under the Telecommunications Act, providers are obligated to manage this themselves.<\/p>\n

    Most providers don’t frequently encounter these kinds of demands. However, when they do receive a demand, they must be able to execute it within the legally specified timeframe. This requires a certain level of readiness, which can be a significant financial and organizational burden for many organizations. The NBIP Interception Service offers a solution by addressing this common challenge in the sector collectively.<\/p>\n

    How does the service work? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    Participants pay a contribution based on the number of end users they serve. NBIP uses these resources to keep a modern and professional interception service operational and ready for participants.<\/p>\n

    NBIP maps out with participants where an interception system can be placed and tests this so that a tap can be placed within 24 hours if necessary.<\/p>\n

    This means that NBIP receives demands on behalf of connected participants, checks them for accuracy, and processes them. If necessary, NBIP deploys with equipment to set up a live tap. All this within the statutory deadlines and according to the applicable (security) regulations associated with lawful interception and lawful disclosure in the Netherlands. NBIP also delivers the requested data on behalf of the queried participant to the government agency authorized to do so, such as the Interception and Sensing (I&S) department of the National Unit of the Police.<\/p>\n

    In addition to the interception service, we also offer support for various judicial demands and the realization and maintenance of the connection with the Central Information Point for Telecommunications Investigation (CIOT).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
