Speaker: Lawrence Dobranski, CISSP-ISSAP, CISM, CSSLP - VoIP Security: VoIP is not data

To manage costs and reduce risks, firms are considering moving to hosted, managed, or self provided VoIP services. Transitioning from traditional voice services to VoIP services introduces new risks, but provides additional services and capabilities. Organizations need to consider these risks and the appropriate mitigation strategies as they make the business decisions regarding VoIP services. VoIP Platforms offer an excellent environment to deliver vertically integrated applications but they have specific risks that must be mitigated. To understand these risks associated with the various flavors of VoIP it is necessary to have a basic understanding of VoIP. Treating VoIP as just another data flow will not expose the unique security requirements and issues associated with this real-time communications system. This presentation will provide an overview of VoIP from a security practitioner perspective, its unique architectural constructs, threat and risk considerations, implications for application development and recommended best practices.
