SecureLogix Corporation CTO and VP of Engineering Mark Collier moderated a panel discussing a host of security issues and concerns facing enterprise voice and interactive communications at the VoiceCon conference and exhibition at the Gaylord Palms Convention Center. Collier is a telephony security and enterprise communications expert and co-author of the book Hacking Exposed: VoIP (McGraw Hill, 2006). He is also the author of the widely read VoIP Security Blog at http://www.voipsecurityblog.com/.
New to this year’s security presentation at VoiceCon is an extension of the discussion into issues facing mobility, the interconnection of private and public communications networks, and social networking and media. Specifically, the panel will seek to address a host of key questions including:- Is IP network security still the primary concern in converged communications networks? If so, what specific vulnerabilities are causing real-world issues?
- What security challenges are added as mobility systems are integrated into IP telephony/Unified Communications? How do you protect against these challenges?
- Can enterprises maintain security while connecting their "islands" of VoIP via SIP trunks? What about opening up their voice systems to business partners or to hosted providers that are delivering discrete elements of the enterprise's voice system?
- What are the biggest security concerns relating to users' adoption of social networking? Are the major issues related to corporate policies, or are there ways in which the security of the communications system itself can be threatened when social networking is integrated with enterprise systems?
