Twilio says that if the 403 answers the initial INVITE that carries no digest the problem is most likely the ACL, and if it answers the INVITE carrying an auth digest sent after a 407 the problem is most likely the credentials.

Checked 2026-09-30

If it is the initial, 'digest-less' INVITE, the problem is most likely the ACL not matching.
