Creating Wireless Broadband Networks for Military, Surveillance, and
Border Patrol Environments
Chris Douglass, Emerging Broadband Solutions
Leader, IBM Wireless e-Business
This session will cover the demanding and often unique requirements
for creating high-speed, VoIP wireless networks for the defense and
homeland security sectors. Key topic areas include an assessment of
this emerging market, the advent of new wireless standards,
guidelines on making business and technical decisions, cost
considerations, and the future of VoIP for military use.
2:20 - 3:20 pm
Delivering Secure VoIP Networks
The migration to IP in military networks is in full swing, yet many
systems and services still rely on older TDM- or ATM-based
networking. Come learn about the demands for delivering secure voice
calls over IP-based networks. In addition, many systems are deployed
in low bandwidth satellite networks, posing a greater challenge to
manage bandwidth for voice and data applications while delivering
high priority encrypted voice traffic.
3:25 - 4:25 pm
Ensuring Secure Voice and Data Communications Between Remote
Terminals
Government and enterprise business travelers are communicating
commercially sensitive and government classified information over
less than secure public networks. Data and voice communications
between remote terminals (telephone handsets and laptop PCs via
modem or NIC) and headquarters or command-level locations over
public networks often results in higher risk of interception. To
overcome these risks, travelers often have to settle on not getting
access to sensitive or classified information or make up special
“lingo” to convey verbal information. Come discuss the tools and
strategies available today to deliver on the promise of secure voice
and data transfer between remote participants.
