VOIP Security

Forward-thinking service providers are seeking to capitalize on the advantages of voice over IP (VoIP) services, but the real world is not a friendly place for VoIP networks. All components of a VoIP infrastructure are targets, even from internal threats. Attempted attacks are inevitable, so protections are imperative. Yet delay-sensitive voice traffic cannot be compromised by processing-intensive security measures.


Fortunately, there are pragmatic and proven answers to all these challenges. Security mechanisms can be implemented into service provider VoIP networks at multiple levels—protecting against these cyber-threats without adding undue latency to delay-sensitive voice traffic or complexity to user login procedures, network architecture, or network administration.


EWA-Canada has been conducting Vulnerability Assessment (VA) activities at client sites for many years. Increasingly these environments are opting to include converged data and telephony equipment to the mix. In addition, as the desire for security is made known, Telecom vendors are increasingly looking at securing their VoIP implementations. EWA-Canada’s position as a high-quality provider of assessment services and EWA-Canada's VoIP Security Assessment methodology, provides for a more consistent manner in which to identify vulnerabilities in VoIP implementations and provide a cost effective solution.
