Corporations that are implementing VoIP technologies simply cannot overlook the security risks that can crop up when the voice and data worlds converge. Security remains a major issue for users and the dangers of unsecured VoIP services are real. Users need to take measures by encrypting voice services; building redundancy into their networks, locking down their VoIP servers and performing regular security audits and making sure the network isn’t directly accessible from the Internet. This session will explore the potential for security breaches and what is being done to protect your VoIP service.
