SG11 consented three draft new ITU-T Recommendations, as follows:​​​

10     Security issues of SS7 and other protocols
Following the approval of ITU-T Q.3057 “Signalling requirements and architecture for interconnection between trustable network entities” in April 2020, SG11 started new work item Q.Pro-Trust “Signalling procedures and protocols for enabling interconnection between trustable network entities in support of existing and emerging networks” in July 2020. It defines the signalling procedures and protocols involved in the application of the signalling requirements and architecture, TSa, Sa and Sc defined in ITU-T Q.3057 for interconnection between trustable network entities in support of existing and emerging networks.

Also, as a continuation of the previous related activities, including those related to financial services, SG11 achieved progress on:​​

11     VoLTE/ViLTE-related issues
Further to TSB Circular 241 of 1 April 2020, and pursuant to clause 9.5 of Resolution 1 (Rev. Hammamet, 2016), ITU-T Study Group 11 (Signalling requirements, protocols, test specifications and combating counterfeit products), during its opening plenary on 22 July 2020, approved new Recommendation ITU-T Q.3643: Signalling architecture of distributed infrastructure ENUM networking for IMS. See TSB Circular 262.

This Recommendation defines the framework and signalling architecture for distributed ENUM networking in support of IMS interconnection. Based on the signalling architecture of a distributed ENUM model, this Recommendation specifies the signalling procedures of ENUM profile management and ENUM resolution. Additionally, the signalling requirements and protocols to be applied for interfaces of distributed ENUM networking are addressed.

• ITU-T Q.4066 (ex Q.TP_AR): Testing procedures of Augmented Reality applications. It describes the procedure for testing augmented reality (AR) applications. In particular, it contains: classification of AR applications, general architecture of the AR application testing model and test specifications for testing various AR applications;
  
• ITU-T Q.4062 (ex Q.FW_IoT/Test): Framework for IoT Testing. It specifies the testing framework for IoT to accommodate the tests for such integrated domains with multiple access technologies;
  
• ITU-T Q.4063 (ex Q.39_FW_Test_ID_IoT): The framework of testing of identification systems used in IoT. It provides approaches of identification of devices used in Internet of Things (IoT). There are a lot of applications of IoT, the testing of their identity might be considered as it allows customer to ensure the authenticity of the IoT. The classification of IoT, in terms of testing of their identification procedures and the relevant testing procedures are also subjects of this Recommendation;
  
• ITU-T Q.3915 (ex Q.BNGP): Set of parameters of vBNG for monitoring. It describes the monitoring architecture and requirements of virtual Broadband Network Gateway(vBNG), and specifies a set of parameters which will be monitored during the lifecycle of a vBNG instance;
  
• ITU-T Q.3961 (ex Q.PWS): Parameters for evaluating bottleneck of web-browsing service. It defines parameters for evaluating bottleneck of web-browsing service, including parameters in the network layer, in the transportation layer and in the application layer, and the characteristic parameters. The relationship between these parameters is also introduced;
  
• ITU-T Q.4064 (ex Q.vbng-iop-reqts): Interoperability testing requirements of virtual Broadband Network Gateway. It aims to specify virtual BNG (vBNG) interoperability testing requirements.
  

• ITU-T Q.vs-iop-ts: Test suite for interoperability testing of virtual switch;
  
• ​ITU-T Q.API4TB: Open API for interoperable testbed federations;
  
• ITU-T Q.TI-TEST: Framework of model network for Tactile Internet testing;
  
• ITU-T Q.BaaS-iop-reqts: Interoperability testing requirements of blockchain as a service;
  
• ITU-T Q.vbng-iop-ts: Test suite for interoperability testing of virtual BNG.
