Internet Telephony

Internet telephony raises new security issues
Internet telephony is revolutionizing the field of telecommunications. VoIP technology is rapidly gaining a foothold in enterprise voice networks around the world and consumer Internet telephony is poised to take off in the next few years. Its growing prevalence in the corporate setting brings with it a new set of security concerns, as well as a number of management challenges. As it merges voice and data, Internet telephony is vulnerable to many of the same kinds of threats that IT networks must fend off daily. And integrating networks with legacy TDM networks is no small matter – especially when the difficulty of the task is compounded by interoperability issues between equipment purchased from multiple vendors. But there is a simple and easy way to both secure and manage Internet telephony, and it can be found at SecureLogix.
