Communications Business Automation Network (CBAN) is a membership organisation with a mission to unlock the value of automated connectivity through industry-wide collaboration.

CFCA
The idea for the Communications Fraud Control Association (CFCA) began in February 1985 with a group of concerned communications security professionals from several different long-distance carriers. Intent upon finding a more effective way to combat the growing problem of communications fraud, representatives met to lay the groundwork for the CFCA. Through the years, membership categories have expanded to include a world-wide network of carriers, PBX /PABX owners, ISPs, cable, and satellite provides, corporate end-users, operator service providers, fraud system developers, prosecutors, members of law enforcement agencies, communications consultants, and companies that provide revenue assurance solutions for wireless, wireline, IP, NGN, etc., systems.
