Track: VoIP Security for Consumer/User
(VS)
Introduction to VoIP Security
(VS-01)
| Friday - 10/13/06, 8:45-9:30am | While performance and availability of a VoIP system are of course extremely important, security oftentimes tops the list of concerns when deploying VoIP. In order to achieve the highest quality of service, focus must be placed on the underlying VoIP security framework. With most attacks occurring at the application level, it is imperative that companies understand the risks, and consequently design an effective security approach. By weaving security in from the onset, VoIP can be a powerful enterprise communications solution that significantly enhances worker productivity and enables cost savings.
In this presentation, the speakers will address a number of security-related VoIP topics, including:
• How VoIP can benefit enterprises;
• Why security must be a critical focus of VoIP migrations from the onset;
• Best practices in developing VoIP migration and adoption plans that maximize security;
• The most dangerous VoIP vulnerabilities and the impact of network configurations on security.

VoIP Security Best Practices
(VS-02)
| Friday - 10/13/06, 12:15-1:00pm | Behind our daily barrage of hacker attacks, announcements of new viruses and worms, and frequent risk of downtime is an opportunity. This session is an opportunity to step away from the noise and learn how to build a proactive VoIP security model. It will explain the root cause of downtime and non compliance and how to preemptively, proactively protect VoIP networks against hackers, viruses, worms, spyware and malicous insiders. Attendees will learn how IP communications applications demand a security solution that not only “borrows” from the best security functionality of the data world but adds specific VoIP protection techniques that take into account the real-time, peer-to-peer, and feature-rich nature of these session-based protocols.

SIP Security
(VS-03)
| Friday - 10/13/06, 1:15-2:00pm | Realtime person-to-person communications are fast becoming a critical communications tool for enterprises of all sizes. With the standardization of SIP as the Internet protocol for applications such as VoIP, instant messaging, presence and video, businesses are eager to adapt their existing hardware to accept SIP quickly, cost-effectively and securely.
Traversing the firewall is a tricky proposition when integrating SIP into any enterprise. Security is also a primary concern. There are a number of solutions available, but not every solution is right for every network.
This session will address the following:
• The basics of SIP, its history, evolution and predictions for the future;
• Solutions for traversing the firewall;
• VoIP security issues and solutions; and
• Which firewall traversal solutions are right for your network.

Taking IP Security to the Next Level
(VS-04)
| Friday - 10/13/06, 2:15-3:00pm | Over the past year, the need for IP security has been clearly established. While data security can rely on a human-based response to security attacks, IP-based networks require an automated real-time response as even a second of downtime seriously impacts service integrity and availability. This presentation will discuss the following:
• The role of prevention, protection, and mitigation in protecting VoIP networks;
• A discussion of threat mitigation, its requirements and overall benefits;
• Outline of models and methodologies used; and
• An examination of work required to make threat mitigation for VoIP networks a reality
