snom will present its new "snom Hacker shootout" program, which will bring together security partners, VoIP Communities and experts within the industry.

The following VoIP security specialists will be addressing the current problems facing the industry and answering audience questions:

Audio encryption (SRTP) and secure transport layer signalling (TLS) is growing in demand for internal company phone calls.  Tools to record RTP audio data within a company network are generally available and becoming increasingly simple to use, and VPN based telephony with employees who work from their homes is no longer an unaffordable expense.

Every year, new VoIP vulnerabilities are discovered and remedied.  These vulnerabilities should be fixed quickly and the public informed appropriately. With its new “snom Hacker Shootout” program, snom intends to develop closer contact with the VoIP communities, in an effort to pass on their findings to existing security solution partners.  Through this program, snom will be able to initiate the necessary steps for improvement in response to the concerns of the industry.
