We often talk about how important it is for enterprises to secure their SIP implementations against hackers. What we don't often talk about is how easy it is for hackers to get into an unsecured SIP.
Everywhere you turn there’s a new story about a major cyber attack. Many of the biggest incidents happen in enterprise data centers, but communications systems are certainly no exception.
NOTE: This is Part 2 of a 2 Part series covering the vulnerabilities in today’s mobile networks and how service providers can address them.
In the first part of this blog, I discussed the pervasiveness of mobile devices and some of the security vulnerabilities facing mobile service providers. In Part 2, I will describe in more detail the security challenges that many mobile network operators face and offer practical solutions regarding how they can address them.

This is a story we at Ribbon are proud to share.
With our partner Verizon, we’ve completed one of the largest VoIP deployments in the history of the US Department of Defense (DOD)’s , leveraging Ribbon’s Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC)-certified Application Server.
With over 50,000 end-users connected and supported, the DOD team can communicate in a secure, mission-critical manner.
As communications networks evolve, interconnects tend to grow in numbers and complexity. Carriers and enterprises are converting core networks to IP, and are using IP to connect with peering entities. For the network core to deal with the emerging universe of applications, networks and devices, those elements must first be normalized at the edge.
We've been helping hundreds of the world's largest Communications Service Providers (CSPs) transform their networks, as one of the first movers in the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) movement.
The cost and performance advantages of SIP Trunking, which moves conventional PRI voice circuits to SIP Trunks, are well known and broadly documented. And now there is a new component to these many benefits – SIP Trunking-as-a-Service.
It's my favorite time of year as GENBAND brings together hundreds of technology and telecom professionals at the top of their game to compare notes about the never dull worlds of networks and real-time communications applications, while sharing their experiences, and revealing visions into a future of hyper-connected digital conversations.
