German IP Phone makers, snom
technology AG, has announced a partnership with BorderWare Technologies
to bring its SIPassure VoIP Security Gateway solution to snom phones.
The combination is designed to offer a secure and easy-to-use solution
that can be integrated seamlessly into any SIP infrastructure. All snom
phones are equipped with SRTP and TLS to protect against unauthorised
listening, but PBXs
must support this functionality.
With BorderWare's SIPassure, this is
no longer necessary, as it combines the functionality of an Application
Layer Gateway (ALG) with the benefits of a Session Border Controller
(SBC).
Using NAT (Network Address Translation) and SIPassure's ability
to provide Far-end NAT Traversal services, it is also possible to use
SIP services on a network that is protected by a firewall. SIPassure
protects against application specific attacks such as registry attacks
and spits, as well as floods of unsolicited calls or messages.
"snom's compatibility with BorderWare's SIPassure VoIP Security
Gateway enables us to offer additional security for our phones from the
entry-level snom 300 to the newest snom 370. Now, we offer the most
secure Voice-over-IP solution currently available to VoIP telephony
providers, ISPs, administrators and VoIP users," said Dr. Michael
Knieling, Marketing and Sales Director of snom.
"The snom and BorderWare partnership creates the technological and
practical requirements for being able to take advantage of the benefits
of
VoIP without the risks. SIPassure has been designed to be
scalable at a low cost for both end user companies and network
providers and offers a secure VoIP connection for every user,"
commented Peter Cox, CTO International BorderWare.
