In this book we can barely scratch the surface of the complex matter of VoIP security; therefore before we dig in, we want to steer you in the direction of the VoIP Security Alliance (http://www.voipsa.org). This fantastic resource contains an excellent mailing list, white papers, howtos, and a general compendium of all matters relating to VoIP security. Just as email has been abused by the selfish and criminal, so too will voice. The fine folks at VoIPSA are doing what they can to ensure that we address these challenges now, before they become an epidemic. In the realm of books on the subject, we recommend the most excellent Hacking Exposed VoIP by David Endler and Mark Collier (McGraw-Hill Osborne Media). If you are responsible for deploying any VoIP system, you need to be aware of this stuff. |
