Just how risky is a phone call over the Internet

Microsoft

A Microsoft article analyses the risks associated with Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and outlines some measures which can be put in place to mitigate these risks. Key issues covered include:

  • Dealing with attack strategies include 'spoofing', where one person or program imitates another, and viruses which disrupt the VoIP gateways/servers
  • Cost savings which can be generated from the use of VoIP
  • Securing servers and using firewalls are two prominent defensive measures you can employ in protecting your system.
