A method for facilitating regulatory compliance with respect to telephony communications is provided. The method includes: assigning, to a mobile telephone, an access number; routing a communication that relates to the assigned access number to a gateway; processing the routed communication to ensure compliance with all jurisdictional regulations, including real-time call recording and short message service (SMS) capturing for compliance archival and search, applying data loss prevention (DLP) rules, and any other suitable processing; and forwarding the processed communication to the mobile telephone. A subscriber identification module (SIM) that is associated with the access number is physically installed at the gateway. The communication may be a voice communication and/or an SMS text communication.
