We would like your help! In order for us to get a better sense of who listens to our show, could you please take a couple of minutes to fill out our listener survey? It is at:
It should take only a few minutes and it will greatly help us.
Why are we asking these questions? Well, mostly it is to understand better who is listening so that we can know better how to target our commentary, interviews, etc. We are also always looking for feedback on the show and ways we can make it that much stronger. Finally, we'd like to collect some demographic info so that when we are requesting interviews and are asked about who listens, we can provide some overall statistics to show the value of being interviewed on this show.
All individual responses will be kept strictly confidential but we will make overall summary data available here on the show website. We greatly appreciate any and all responses you can give.
P.S. Yes, on show #25 I said the survey was 25 questions... after the recording I added 5 more... I hope you can still take the time to answer it. :-)

04:04 - Discussion of the "IP Telephony Solutions for Government" show where Dan spoke last week in DC and where he was able to spend some time with listener Craig Bowser.
Why he believes SPIT is more of a concern than many others view it as
SIP peering, business models and security issues
His perspective on attending the IETF meeting in Dallas last month, and specifically issues discussed there around SPIT and SIP Identity
An explanation of the proposed SIP Identity mechanism
His views on why "policy" is incredibly important
The dangers lurking in SIP routing and how unprotected it is
This is the second part of our IETF-related interviews (the first was in show #22) and we hope this has given you a good perspective on what occurred at that meeting.

In the spirit of the programming version of Easter eggs I will ask the question: what did we do differently with regard to the audio in the recording of this episode? I did something subtle... and I'm curious to know if it is detectable. (Hmmm... sounds like a good idea for an audio comment back to us, eh?)

Synopsis: VoIP security news, opinions and comments from listeners as well as a 25-minute interview with Dan Wing and Cullen Jennings from Cisco about SIP media security coming out of recent IETF meetings.
Welcome to Blue Box: The VoIP Security Podcast show #22, a 45-minute podcast from Dan York and Jonathan with news and commentary about the world of VoIP security. This show also features the first of two interviews we have coming at you about the IETF meetings that took place in March 2006. This week's 25-minute interview is with Dan Wing and Cullen Jennings of Cisco Systems and is primarily about Dan Wing's presentation on methods of securing the SIP media stream.

15:34 - Feature interview with Dan Wing and Cullen Jennings of Cisco Systems primarily about Dan Wing’s presentation on SIP key exchange mechansims at the recent IETF meeting in March in Dallas, Texas. In this segment, Dan goes through his first slides and explains the basic security issues around securing SIP media streams, talks about design choices for various proposed solutions and discusses where all this is going. Given that SRTP interoperability between systems is an extremely important issue right now, it's well worth grabbing a copy of the slides and joining Dan in a journey through the issues. At about 32:03, the interview shifted to Cullen Jennings where he discussed the IETF re-organization and creation of the Realtime Applications and Infrastructure (RAI) Area and what that means for these issues. Cullen also provides his view on the security discussions that occurred down at the IETF meeting. Definitely all well worth a listen.
