Are you attending Black Hat next week in Las Vegas (July 29-Aug 2)? Or the Defcon show that follows? If so, would you be willing to provide a report (either audio or written) for us to include in a future Blue Box podcast (or potentially post on the VOIPSA blog)? Neither Jonathan nor I (nor Martyn) are going to be attending Black Hat or Defcon but there do look to be a number of quite interesting talks involving VoIP security. If you would be willing to send in a report from Black Hat or Defcon just briefly talking about what is discussed at the sessions there, please do drop us an email as we'd love to have such contributions.
FYI, if you want to try audio, contributions could be either: 1) recorded using something like Audacity and then sent by email; or 2) simply called into our comment line (+1-206-350-2583 or sip:[email protected]).
In the first interview, Martyn Davies speaks
to Rod Hodgman, VP of Marketing at Covergence, about their SBC product
line, Eclipse. Rod talks about SBCs that support peering and access edge
applications, and then focuses on access edge features such as NAT traversal and
DoS protection. The discussion also covers software vs. appliance; OS
hardening, ATCA and media acceleration. Rod answers the question "do SBCs
break the rules of SIP?", and tells us a user story.
In the second part, Martyn speaks to Jeff Carr, VP of the SIP Solutions Group at Borderware, about their software SBC, SIPAssure. Jeff talks about the access edge, SPIT (Internet Telephony SPAM): content filtering and reputation management; firewall vs. SBC. He also tackles the question "do SBCs break the rules of SIP?", and goes on to tell us a story about one of their OEM customers.
