CTO Will Outline the Security Threats to Enterprise VoIP Networks and Discuss
Emerging Solutions
SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- SecureLogix Corporation announced
today that Chief Technology Officer Mark Collier will discuss the security
threats and vulnerabilities targeting converged voice/data networks at the
2005 Fall VON Forum on Wednesday September 21, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:15 a.m.
The conference will be held from September 20th - 22nd at the Boston
Convention Center.
Although there is an increasing awareness that the general, underlying
vulnerabilities of data networks are an equally serious concern for converged
voice/data networks, less is understood about VoIP application-specific
threats such as Denial-of-Service floods, malformed packets, registration
hijacking, SIP proxy impersonation, message tampering, session tear downs,
voice mail bombs, and VoIP spam (also call "SPIT"). This presentation will
examine newly emerging security threats to VoIP services and infrastructure,
while recommending a number of best practices for protecting enterprise VoIP
networks from attack and service disruption.
