It is usually found printed inside the battery compartment of the phone. interception (wiretapping) can be specified by its IMEI number as well as IMSI and MSISDN.TMSI stands for Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity. It is the identity that is most commonly sent between the mobile and the network.Tactical SMS SMS stands for Short Message System.GSM stands for Global System for Mobile Communications.GPS stands for Global Positioning System.GPRS stands for General Package Radio Service.UMTS stands for Universal Mobile Telecommunication System.CDMA stands for Code Division Multiple Access.PSTN stands for Public Switch Telephone Networks.DHCP DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.GTP stands for GPRS Tunnelling Protocol.Pattern Recognition and Pattern Profiling equipment Remote Forensics equipment Semantic Processing Engine equipment WEP and WPA code breaking equipment Interception equipment for VoIP proprietary and standard protocol
