As more and more enterprises explore the viability of bringing voice communications to their existing data network, reliability and security remain the largest obstacles to full-scale deployment. Businesses need assurance that the phones will work just as well—if not better—than they have in the past, and that a worm or virus that used to shut down their e-mail for hours at a time, won?t do the same to their voice network.

More specifically, some of the major security concerns with VoIP adoption include:

• Service availability, especially in the face of DoS and DDoS attacks
• Eavesdropping or man-in-the-middle attacks that compromise security
• Misuse of VoIP services through rogue users and impersonation
• Detection and location service for life-critical E911 calls
• Phishing, SpIT and other threats against VoIP that can interrupt service
