New VoIP security alliance
p2pnet.net News:- A new industry group has been formed to counter security threats presented by the growing popularity of VoIP (voice over internet protocol).
“Successful attacks against a combined voice and data network can cripple an enterprise, halt communications required for productivity, and result in irate customers and lost revenue,” says TippingPoint, a division of 3Com, which claims leadership of the group.
The VOIP Security Alliance, or VOIPSA, which officially went online today, so far has 22 members including 3Com, Alcatel, Avaya, Codenomicon, Columbia University, Ernst & Young’s Guiliani Advanced Security Center, Insightix, NetCentrex, Qualys, SecureLogix, Siemens, Sourcefire, Southern Methodist University, Spirent, Symantec, the SANS Institute, and Tenable Network Security
“The VoIP Security Alliance (VOIPSA) aims to help organizations understand and avoid VoIP security risks through discussion lists, white papers, sponsorship of VoIP security research projects, and the development of tools and methodologies for public use,” says TippingPoint.
“VOIPSA is the first and only group solely and holistically dedicated to VoIP security backed by a wide spectrum of organizations represented by universities, security researchers, VoIP vendors, and VoIP providers.”
